The Black Seeds triumphed at Auckland’s Powerstation with a show that very nearly didn’t happen.
On a night which promised the full experience of an East Coast frost, self-described “musical heaters” The Black Seeds brought their sunny sound to an appreciative Hawkes Bay audience.
Opening with their hit ‘Cool Me Down’ from 'Into The Dojo', The Black Seeds served us their best; a musical feast for the soul, their sound evolving over the years into their latest deep grooves.
It's Friday night in Auckland City and the air is thick with anticipation; it is the eve of the elections and the possible chance of a change in government. But outside the historic Powerstation, it is a different form of anticipation that can be felt in the air
Each one of them in turn spun a short set of their favourite soul, hip hop and reggae tunes, acting DJ in a modest way without introduction or fanfare.
