Brisbane roof raisers Kingfisha have been laying down weighty reggae and dub, and bringing their passionate music to eager audiences for 5 years, in the process cementing themselves as Australia's premier reggae act. The 6-piece band deliver crafted and modern reggae music by coupling their love of Jamaican rhythms with personal depth and style.

Their incredibly well received self titled debut album saw lead single 'Piece of the Puzzle' added to triple j and the album landed album of the week status at PBS FM, Radio Australia and East Side Radio amongst plenty of rave reviews and Kingfisha enjoyed touring opportunities that have taken them to some of the world's most interesting places such as a recent wildly successful run of shows in Africa including South Africa, Mozambique, Reunion Island and Swaziland.

Going from strength to strength, Kingfisha recently inked deals with 123 Agency for bookings and ABC Music for the release of Offered it Up out on September 9th ahead of their huge national tour which will see Kingfisha team up with long term collaborators Earth Frequency Festival to present the hometown Brisbane launch at the Triffid.
