History
Gamilaraay was announced as participating region for the first edition. They decided to take part under the official Aboriginal flag. As only region from Australia, and outside of Europe, they finished at the fourth place. Loren Ryan was selected to represent the region for the second edition in Tórshavn. She finished with her song, in both the Gamilaraay language and English, at the ninth place.

Gamilaraay decided to withdraw from the competition after the second edition. Their reason for this decicion was the lack of singers who were interested to take part. The head of delegation announced that they would continue to contact various artists. He also added to his statement that he hoped that they would be represented soon in the future.

Loren Ryan was selected to take part in the fifth edition, the edition that the region returned. She finished at the last place.
