Notes
--------
1814 are an 8-piece Reggae Band whose members live in the
hills surrounding the beautiful Whangaroa Harbour and
nearby town of Kerikeri, Northland.

Patu Colbert (guitar/vocals), formed the band with sons:
Shaun (drums) and Jimmy (bass), in 2004. "We started out
supporting various community events and festivals around
Northland and now travel around the country performing our
take on kiwi flavoured reggae," said Patu. As the
popularity of the band grew, so has the members which now
include, Darren Katene (lead vocals); Katherine Te Haara –
Atama (vocals); Reuben Heger (sax); Erana Jones (keys) and
Maihi Pinker (vocals).

The name, 1814, was taken from the year the Gospel arrived
at Oihi, in the Bay Of Islands. Missionary, Samuel Marsden,
held the first sermon there on Christmas Day, 1814. This is
the inspiration behind delivering a message of peace, love
and unity to all people throughout the world.

Jah Rydem, the bands debut Album has been well received
around the country. Patu describes the sound as having an
up beat, funky, r’n’b, roots reggae feel to it. Song
writing for the album was shared between band members with
Darren writing lyrics for several of the songs.

"If you love skankin, you'll love the live show's, full of
energy, up beat grooves, wicked sax and sweet soulful
vocals," said Patu.

The band plays at various gig's and festivals throughout
the year and has had the privilege of sharing the bill with
some of the country’s top acts: Katchafire, House of Shem,
3 Houses Down, Cornerstone Roots, Unity Pacific, Ardijah,
Ruia Aperahama, Whirimako Black, Che Fu, Moana and the
Tribe, Spacifix and International Guitar player, Billy TK
Jnr to name a few.

So, if your into the irie sounds of reggae music, get out
and catch the band at a show near you this coming summer.

Jah Rydem is the band's debut album and was recorded at
York Street Studios Auckland, and produced by Billy
Kristian in the Far North and features 11 original tracks.
