The late, great Archie Roach, a Gunditjmara (Kirrae Whurrong/Djab Wurrung) and Bundjalung singer-songwriter known as ‘Uncle Archie’ to many, has been posthumously recognised with one of the nation’s highest honours.
He was one of 1047 Australians recognised in the Australia Day 2023 Order of Australia Honours, which recognise ‘meritorious, distinguished and conspicuous service’ across a range of sectors, from the arts to the public service.
