INDIGENOUS ROOTS REGGAE OUTFIT KICK OFF EAST COAST TOUR AT SPLENDOUR
Celebrating the forthcoming release of their debut album Nothin’ To Lose, up-and-coming roots reggae band Zennith are embarking on their first official east coast tour, kicking off in Brisbane and Woodford with a billing on the coveted Splendour in the Grass festival line-up. Harking from Far North Queensland, Zennith are forging their way in an industry previou...sly dominated by pop, and showing that real music by real musicians is the way of the future.
Deriving inspiration from the world around them, their Indigenous roots and experiences gained in the past few years the band has been performing live, Zennith’s debut release is all about the message behind the songs. The music traverses from laid-back reggae to up-tempo raw roots influenced tracks and even a bit of solid driving rock. There is something for all music lovers in the plethora of genres that make up Zennith’s record.
While their music speaks for itself, it is in their live show that Zennith really shines. It is vibrant, tight and a visual spectacle as band members swap instruments mid-set and hype the crowd up to join in with the songs. Most of the members are multi-instrumentalists, who look as comfortable on the drums as they do on guitar and piano, and they all try their hands at vocals, successfully, as well as contributing to the songwriting process.

3rd September   As part of 'Cairns Festival 2010' the 'Kuranda Folk Night' will be hosting 'Shells' CD Launch.
This very unique Folk Night will be held, for the first time, at the Kuranda Amphitheatre - Understage. Shells will be supported on the night by very special guests including: local Kuranda 'Bama Dayal...'
