Gravel Road

Gravel Road is the story of Jay Minning, singer-songwriter of the most remote rock band in the world, the Desert Stars. This musical four piece are traditional land owners of Spinifex Country, in the Great Victoria Desert, Western Australia - home of the last nomads. From their home in remotest Tjuntjuntjara, we follow Jay and the band's first tour as they rock their way across the Western desert with songs of hunter-gatherer life, surviving British atomic testing, and a profound connection to culture that spans back 2,000 generations. With customary Spinifex reciprocity, Jay shares the journey with east-coast friends, the Re-mains, and provides a rare glimpse into his country, his culture, his music, and his extraordinary everyday life.
