Musician/Singer

John Schumann is an acclaimed Australian singer-songwriter and guitarist, best known as the lead singer of the folk group Redgum. His career took off in the 1970s when he co-founded Redgum, which became famous for their poignant hit “I Was Only 19 (A Walk in the Light Green).” This song not only topped charts but also played a crucial role in raising awareness about the psychological effects of the Vietnam War, with proceeds aiding Vietnam Veterans during the 1983 Royal Commission into Agent Orange. Schumann’s songwriting has left an indelible mark on Australian music and culture.

After leaving Redgum in 1985, Schumann embarked on a successful solo career, releasing several albums including “Etched in Blue” and “True Believers.” His single “Borrowed Ground” won the APRA Most Performed Australasian Country Work Award in 1988, showcasing his talent and versatility as a musician. Schumann’s commitment to social justice is evident in his involvement with campaigns such as the ‘Save The Franklin River,’ where he recorded the single “Let the Franklin Flow,” further solidifying his role as a voice for the people.

In addition to his music career, Schumann has made significant contributions to public discourse as a political activist and public intellectual. He served as the chief of staff for the Australian Democrats and has spoken on various social justice issues, earning recognition as a distinguished alumnus from Flinders University in 2008. His work has consistently focused on Australian identity and the human experience, making him a compelling storyteller.

Schumann continues to perform with John Schumann and the Vagabond Crew, engaging audiences with his rich narratives and musical talent. His dedication to the veteran community and his artistic contributions were recognized with the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) in 2014 and the Member of the Order of Australia (AM) in 2022. Schumann’s legacy as a musician and advocate for social justice remains influential in Australia today.
