What: The Black Seeds will be performing at the Belly Up Tavern in Solano Beach

Artist Bio: The Black Seeds have their roots in the coastal capital city of Wellington, New Zealand - a small, tight-knit creative community that in recent years has produced such things as The Lord Of The Rings films, and the comedy duo Flight Of The Conchords (Bret McKenzie was a member of The Black Seeds until recently). Fitting in with the laidback, outdoor Kiwi way of life, reggae music was warmly embraced in New Zealand in the 70's, embedding itself into the fabric of contemporary New Zealand culture and sewing the seeds for a burgeoning local roots scene, of which The Black Seeds have been at the forefront in recent years. Their new album, Solid Ground (Easy Star Records), will be released exclusively on iTunes on September 15th and everywhere else on September 29th.

Cost: Ticket are $17/$19, Doors open @ 8:00 pm
