Dobby (Rhyan Clapham)

Written By Maeve Marsden

Dobby (Rhyan Clapham) is a true force of nature, with his electrifying live performances leaving audiences spellbound. As a rapper, drummer, composer and producer, he brings a dynamic and powerful energy to his live shows delivering an experience like no other. Proudly identifying as a Filipino and Murrawarri musician, Dobby's roots run deep in the Aboriginal lands from Brewarrina and Weilmoringle in New South Wales. Dobby's music has taken him across the globe, from Germany to the UK, the USA to the Netherlands. He has performed at some of the biggest festivals across the country, including Bluesfest and Boomerang Festival, Port Fairy Folk Festival, PARRTJIMA Festival, and OzAsia Festival, as well as the iconic Sydney Opera House.

Dobby’s poetry is featured in Woven, a collection edited by Anne-Marie Te Whiu, published in 2024.
