LET ME GROW MY WINGS
Australia’s renowned songwoman of contemporary South Sudanese music, Ajak Kwai releases the first single from her fifth studio album. With Ajak’s dedication as a passionate activist for refugees in Australia, this single is the album title track aptly called 'Let Me Grow My Wings'. Says Ajak, "My experiences in Australia inform my songs and my music. Music is a universal language – maybe one day we will forget our differences and hold the hands of one another".
