We are a 6 piece reggae/r&b band, and our focus is on composing original music and songs. We love to play original music  and have a strong focus on this and we also have strongs covers sets to compliment our gigs and an upbeat, fun friendly onstage persona. We play all our original music at every gig, and only play our original music at festivals, or shows. We love to do original reggae music with a destinctly female feel, with the three irie sistahs/ladies fronting the group with their melodious harmonies., and fresh funky reggae flows.
