The name

Naming anything is a difficult task. When we name something we own it. The name evokes the nature of the beast. The name Donga Dan's Derelict Band came out of intense discussion. We wanted a name that was alliterative and memorable. We wanted something that evoked the Australian country - the bush, and we agreed that the word 'derelict' illustrated who we were. We were a group of people without much to give, flotsam on the sea of life, 'derelict' in the face of a perfect God.


The name was born.
