Biography

While firmly based in the island grooves that inspired the birth of the band over two decades ago, The Black Seeds' sound casts a wide net, layering funk, soul, Afrobeat, and other eclectic elements over their dub/reggae foundations. It's "contemporary groove music with influences from soul and funk and reggae rhythms" explains guitarist/vocalist Barnaby Weir.

Described by Clash Magazine as "one of the best live reggae acts on the planet," The Black Seeds legendary eight-piece live show infuses raw energy and good vibes wherever they go, fueling multi-platinum sales and a growing worldwide following. With countless sold out tours behind them and performances at many of the world’s leading festivals, The Black Seeds live show delivers a soul party on time, every time.

The Black Seeds Marketing Affinity & Brand Fit Data

Report Date: 2025-09-09

The Black Seeds maintains consistent pull among 25-34 & 18-24 audiences across BRAZIL, NEW ZEALAND, UNITED STATES.

Affinity with Air New Zealand, TUI, TUI Group makes streetwear, music platforms, and lifestyle products a simple starting line. If the goal is to create a moment that travels, this is the right lane.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low
How to read it: Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge intensity and scale.
