Hailing from Wellington, New Zealand, and led by the vocals of Barnaby Weir and Daniel Weetman The Black Seeds’ produce a boundary-crossing fusion of dub, funk, afrobeat and soul, mixed with vintage reggae. Their unique style of layering supremely infectious grooves and melodies over undiluted roots music now sees their popularity spreading quickly throughout the globe in recent years.
After forming in 1997, The Black Seeds have a gold, platinum, and two double-platinum selling albums behind them, as well as a masterful 8-piece live show that has seen them perform at many of the biggest festivals throughout New Zealand, Australia and Europe.
After signing record deals with European labels Sonar Kollektiv and Rough Trade Netherlands in 2007, The Black Seeds successfully released their 3rd album Into the Dojo in Europe in July 07 to critical acclaim and strong airplay, followed by their third European tour in the summer 2007.
In 2008 The Black Seeds released their anticipated 4th studio album 'Solid Ground' in NZ, Europe & Australia. The release was supported by sell-out NZ & Australian tours, and two successful European tours which included standout performances at festivals such as Roskilde, The Lovebox Weekender, Garrance, Summerjam, and many more.
Solid Ground will be released in North America in 2009. Full release details will soon be announced shortly.
