In 2011, Uone was officially diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, a chronic disease that attacks the central nervous system (the brain, spinal cord and optic nerves). The condition emerged after receiving a yellow fever vaccine—a requirement for touring Brazil at the time. Despite this challenge, he continues to thrive as a disabled artist, drawing inspiration from his surroundings while living along the Kiewa River in regional Victoria. In recent years, following the impacts of COVID, Uone has had to slow down dramatically from playing gigs and touring to focus on keeping his MS health stable. Beyond his music, he is a dedicated fundraiser for Do It For MS, having raised over $13,000 to help people living with Multiple Sclerosis access vital support services. His commitment to both his craft and his community reflects his resilience and passion for making a positive impact.
