The Black Seeds

The Black Seeds are a celebrated band hailing from Wellington, New Zealand, known for their vibrant blend of reggae, dub, funk, and soul. Formed in 1998, the group quickly garnered a devoted following with their energetic live performances and a sound deeply rooted in the bass-heavy grooves of the Pacific. The ensemble, led by the charismatic Barnaby Weir and Daniel Weetman, has been an essential component of New Zealand’s rich musical tapestry, consistently pushing the boundaries of modern reggae while maintaining a distinctive Kiwi flavor.

Over the years, The Black Seeds have released a series of acclaimed albums, establishing themselves as one of New Zealand's musical treasures with an international fan base. Their discography includes "Dust And Dirt" (2012), which showcases their knack for crafting earthy rhythms and memorable melodies, followed by the soulful sonic journey of "Fabric" (2017). In 2019, they offered fans a fresh take on their work with "Refabricated: Fabric Remixes & Rarities", an exploration of new textures and soundscapes. The recent string of releases, including singles such as "Love & Fire," "Game Over," and "Raised with Love," continues to see The Black Seeds evolving, with their music spreading a message of love, unity, and consciousness that resonates globally.
