Brownhill Announce Wellington Album Release Show


MEDIA RELEASE: Thursday 14 March

Brownhill Announce Wellington Album Release Show

Hot off the back of the release of their debut album First Love, reggae band BrownHill are throwing a hometown album release party at Wellington’s James Cabaret (The Frontroom) on Saturday 30 March.

The 9-piece will be performing tracks off their acclaimed new album – including top 10 urban radio hit ‘Pretty Lady’ - and the night will also feature performances from SWISS, L40, and DJ Huta of Paepae Soundsystem.

In celebration of the release, there will be an extended happy hour of 7-9pm offering $5 drinks, CD signings and photo ops with the band and rising Pacific reggae star, SWISS.

First Love is an intoxicating mix of smooth reggae tunes with a distinctive pacific vibe, the nine-piece act describe the album as a culmination of their own individual experiences and lessons around one central theme – love.

From thehighs to the lows - all wrapped up in beautiful harmonies, up-lifting beats and sunny-side-up lyrics - BrownHill want people to use their music as a “tool of encouragement for anyone facing the challenges that life and love throw at us”.

After performing with the likes of International Reggae Sensations such as JBoog,Spawnbreezie, Katchafire, Three Houses Down, 1814, George 'Fiji' Veikoso and many more, BrownHill were prompted to record tracks of their own.
