| Description: | PNG stringband music is a Melanesian popular music genre that developed from the 1950s–1970s. It typically features acoustic guitar, ukulele, and bass guitar accompaniment with vocal harmonies. Songs are performed in Tok Pisin (PNG Creole/Pidgin), Hiri Motu, local vernacular languages, or a mixture of these. Stringband music is strongly associated with urban PNG, particularly Port Moresby, and became a defining cultural expression of post-independence Papua New Guinea. Recordings are a compilation of best-known stringband songs and performers are from various provinces of PNG but relates musical performance to Port Moresby. The 'Best Of' compilation and the Port Moresby (POM) context of the recordings include well-known POM stringbands from the 1970s–1990s era. Stringbands and Song List to be determined. Sounds most likely to be ENB, WNB, NI, Manus and Central provinces. Source: Wantok Musik Foundation (David Bridie & Steven Gagau, April 2026). Language as given: | |
