Winner - Album of the Year and Single Recorded Performance of the Year (Frackin’ Fricker) at the 2014 Australian Bush Laureate Awards.

If you’ve never heard of coal seam gas mining, Frackin’ Fricker will set you straight!

What started as a desire to record his Frackin’ Fricker poem became an album with slam pieces, recent favourites, neglected verses and even a rap single!

In these original poems Gregory North brings out the quirky characters and their humour along with a dash of weightiness.
