Tahuna Breaks
Since their beginnings in January 2005, Tahuna Breaks have always been a band built upon a simple philosophy- the love of music. With an open mind and an adventurous spirit, unafraid to mix genres and musical stylings- their ‘anything goes’ and sometimes unconventional approach is governed only by two criteria: passion and energy. The lifeblood of this band is live performance and it is from countless live gigs and tours that they have crafted their own brand of roots reggae, funk, soul and good old fashioned rock and roll...

Black Brown and White is, im my opinion an outstanding album. Its a well balanced album. Skank a bit, grove a bit and chill to some of the beatiful slower songs. Im struggling to pick a stand out sond as they are all excellent in their own right but i would have to say that the re-working of Crisis Situation from their first album is clever and sounds amazing. Sophies Lullaby would be hard to gloss over...it will give you a shiver down your spine in a good way. Saw the live show in Tauranga which was cool, my only gripe is i wish that bands would release their albums before they tour so we know what we are singing and bopping along to, but hey, thats just personal preference. Great job Tahuna Break, thoroughly impressive and definately one of my favourites over the last few years. Catch you again over summer I hope!
