JAHMOKO
Bio - Mar 2013

Jahmoko is a newly formed originals reggae band, founded and formed in Perth, WA Nov 2011. Composed of local and international musicians with the majority originating from Aotearoa, New Zealand.

The meaning behind the name JAHMOKO is “the affinity and love we have for reggae music and Maori culture” (moko being the maori translation for grandchild and also tattoo). They consider themselves the grandchildren of Jah having grown up listening to legends like Bob Marley, Jimmy Cliff, Peter Tosh, Herbs, Dennis Brown, Toots and the Maytals just to name a few. However we are not Rastafarian and we do not practice the religion but we love the music and movement of this ever growing genre, and have given it their own sound. Jahmoko members are family orientated thanks to their upbringing in Aotearoa and their culture, which is what they pride their identity on. Jahmoko’s aim is to share this love with the rest of the world through their own sound of Reggae, RnB, Rock and Hip Hop etc and infuse these influences in their own original way creating the unique sound of Jahmoko.

The Jahmoko LIVE experience is an unforgettable occasion, their presence and performance is so tight so real and so inspirational with songs to entertain, educate and enlighten all. So far they have supported Ardijah, Ria Hall, Paua, House Of Shem, Gramps Morgan, 1814, Foundation and the one and only KATCHAFIRE!

The band has wasted no time in spreading the good vibes all over and with them being well received, August 2012 saw JAHMOKO release an EP Album 'The Journey'. Their EP has been distributed throughout the iwi radio stations in New Zealand and has been rotating in the Top 5 of Radio Tainui, Moana and Maniapoto FM since its release. Also their track “Freedom (acoustic version)” is featured on the “Conscious Uprising” Aotearoa movement compilation album released in NZ 2012. 

Jahmoko is a class A headline act in their own right and are turning ears with loyal followings expanding daily. A professional and cohesive unit ready to make their own mark in the music industry here and abroad, currently unsigned and about to hit the studio to record their first full album.
	
Just when you thought you heard it all along comes Jahmoko with the power and vitality to steer reggae in a new direction.
