The Black Seeds Drop New Album 'Love & Fire'
New Zealand roots legends The Black Seeds have lifted the lid on their sunny new collection Love & Fire, the band's seventh studio album and a dedication to their long time manager Matt McLeod. Chock full of danceable, grooveable tracks and showcasing the eclectic talents of the Pōneke octet, Love & Fire began as a series of jams and demos at The Surgery studios back in 2018. Then came the pandemic, leading The Black Seeds crew to finishing forming the album via video chat, as lead vocalist Barnaby Weir explains "Ideally, each member sent in one or two takes of what they were feeling they wanted to add to the track, and this worked well. In some ways – without being together gave the lads that creative mind space to lay down something meaningful".
The eight-piece dub team take their sun-soaked tunes on the road this month and next, warming up the country with new tracks and old beginning this Thursday in hometown venue San Fran...
