Hydrofunk Records are excited to introduce THE BOY OF MANY COLORS and his debut single ‘Hungy’ due for release on Friday February 21.

Indigenous rapper, producer, dancer, visual designer and editor Coedie Ochre Warrah McCarthy is The Boy Of Many Colors That Came In The Falling Rain, which is the traditional meaning and translation of his name, and the inspiration behind the title of his new project.  Coedie is also a founding member, vocalist and Didgeridoo player with Byron Bay based 4-peice Indigenoise.

His tribes are the Yidinji Bar Burrum & Mamu of North QLD, and he was born in a place called Koonorigan on Bunjalung (butterfly) country where he grew up with many elders teaching him culture, dance and art. Showcasing his culture with them for years he took up Hip hop on the side and the results are a combination of tribal and modern music where the past and future meet. His totem animals are cassowary and possum.

’Hungy’ meaning ‘hungry’ in street slang (and also a form of underground cooking in Maori language) is a song about Coediebeing a hungry artist and being fed up with being held back by things in life. The chorus has two parts one of which he sings ‘YAMANI set me free!’ - Yamani being the rainbow serpent (Aboriginal creator spirit) in his tradition language (Yidinji). He also calls out to his ancestors, spirits and creators to set him free to run a muck and make some movement in the industry.

Filmed in and around his hometown of Byron Bay THE BOY OF MANY COLORS has also released the companion video for ’Hungy’.

THE BOY OF MANY COLORS debut single ‘Hungy’ will be available digitally  

Friday February 21 through Hydrofunk Records & MGM
