Unity Pacific is a contemporary reggae band hailing from New Zealand, known for combining traditional Pacific and reggae sounds with socio-political lyrics, often focusing on issues ranging from indigenous rights to global unity. The group is fronted by musician Tigilau Ness, who is a figure of significant influence in the Pacific music scene and a notable activist for Maori and Pacific Islander issues within New Zealand. Ness, the father of hip hop artist Che Fu, has often been commended not only for his musical talent but also for his dedication to cultural preservation and political advocacy through music.

Unity Pacific rose to prominence with their distinctly roots-oriented approach to reggae, striving to maintain the genre's traditional focus on rhythm and social commentary, while incorporating local influences that give their sound a unique twist. With albums like "Into the Dread" and "From Street To Sky," they've earned a reputation for thoughtful, evocative lyrics set against the backdrop of classic reggae grooves. Their most recent releases, such as "Rise Up," "Integrity," and "From Street To Sky (Rendition)," continue to showcase their development as artists who are not only dedicated to their craft but also to spreading messages of peace, justice, and unity through their melodies and words.
