The April issue of Rolling Stone declared him as "Australia's Most Important Voice." Whilst this enormous accolade is accepted with great pride and humilty, it is the release of Gurrumul's highly anticipated follow up album Rrakala that has media tongue's wagging.
This second solo album retains the quality, purity and sound of his first, but has this elusive artist delving into other genres and instruments within his own cultural context. Showcased for the first time are his exceptional skills on piano, drums, nylon string acoustic guitar, electric and acoustic guitars.

Uncut (magazine) (p.86) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he woody, minor-key folkiness, melodic sophistication and tropical pop lilt conjure an irresistible blend of Bon Iver, Paul Simon and Youssou N'Dour."

2011 release from the Aboriginal artist. Titled Rrakala; a sub-group of people within the Gumatj clan, Gurrumul's songwriting and choice of songs reflects deeper into his Aboriginal identity. It follows in the footsteps of the multi ARIA award winning double platinum debut album released in February 2008 and which has gone on to sell half a million copies worldwide
