ABOUT

Jahkaya is a Reggae influenced band originally from New Zealand now living in sunny QLD. Our sound is rooted in reggae rhythms and blended with a variety of other styles including dub, ska as well as funk.
Originally deep-rooted in the more traditional roots and foundation of Reggae that helped build their reputation as a serious act, their music began to take a direction toward a more modern, spaced-out sound with an occasional blend of the traditional.
We are currently looking for a Saxophonist/Trumpet player/s and or another Keyboardist to join our band. We think a brass section and /or additional Keys will add so much more flare to the dynamic we have already created within the group. What do you have to lose? contact us now :)
