“We use roots as a vehicle or medium to convey emotion. We combine lyrical
message with primal rhythms. We are
organic in our music and spiritual in the way we play it.” – Warren
Maxwell, TrinityRoots
Home, Land and Sea is the second album from Trinity Roots and it's roots and
reggae of the purest kind.
Steeped in mystique, flavoured with jazz and infused with soul, there is a sense
of timelessness and space present on this album. There is no rush. There are no
radio edits. Everything has its place, ebbing and flowing accordingly.
From the opening track Aotearoa, “a heartfelt and spiritual ode to our
Motherland”, TrinityRoots delve deep into the magical soil of this country,
and the album is interwoven with soundbites from friends and whanau.
Alongside band members Warren Maxwell, Rio Hemopo and Riki Gooch, appears Hollie
Smith, while the album was engineered and co-produced by Lee Prebble.
