I have been into reggae music throughout my life.  It all started with my older brother getting me into it.  He was in a hawaiian-reggae band for the past 8 years or so.  It started with Hawaiian music.  I liked the more contemporary/new music rather than traditional.  I looked into other music around the polynesian islands.  I came across the love for New Zealand Reggae.  My favorite band of all time is Katchafire.  My second favorite band from the area is Three Houses Down.  My third fav is Fat Freddy’s Drop.

These bands just provided some great reggae music!  They really put NZ on reggae map.  I would also like to mention Kora, The Black Seeds, and Cornerstone Roots.
