   About dDub
.. /></a>>
<br>
<p>
dDub are one of New Zealand’s best loved live acts. Engaging and uplifting, the dDub crew propel their way seamlessly through a powerful and non-stop roots explosion. Horns, harmonies, and hands-high dDub tunes combine to create an elevating musical experience not to be missed.</p>                                                                                                          
<p>Just back from their 3rd Australian tour, dDub were overwhelmed by the response from the Australian public and press. The tours covered Sydney, Byron Bay, and Brisbane culminating in a sell-out show in Melbourne with local band The Red Eyes.</p>
<p><em> “dDub’s accomplished lead singer/guitarist Derek Browne steered a massive groove and ska-hot brass to take the party through an explosive journey of high hands roots rock and reggae.”</em>
- Inpress (Melbourne)– </p>
<p>dDub have recently released their 2nd full length album ‘Medicine Man’ to another round of 4 and 5 star reviews Nationwide. Medicine Man has just spent 3 weeks on the National Top 40 album charts and debuted at number 2 on the Independent Charts. The single ‘Quicksand’ from the album is presently number 2 on the KiwiFM top 10.</p>
<p><em>

“WOMAD 2007 organisers are thrilled with the success of the weekend event. The festival attracted a crowd of about 45,000, the biggest ever. New Zealand band dDub drew a large crowd to the Gables stage. dDub showed why they had become favourites at outdoor festivals, connecting with the huge crowd.” - Taranaki Daily News -

“Sophisticated arrangements, sweet tones, subtle poetic lyrics and good playing make dDub's Awake At Dawn (Vunderchick) a pleasant addition to the growing category of New Zealand reggae. Swift tempo changes, a mariachi-influenced horn section and squeaky-clean riddims -… show this band is a finely tuned vehicle capable of running full throttle straight through your town” The Beat Magazine – USA -

"With eagerly anticipated new albums being released by the Red Hot Chilli Peppers and the Black Seeds, it was always going to be difficult picking my album of the year. But in the depths of winter I think I've found it in the sublime summer sounds that make up the long-awaited debut album from dDub" Craccum magazine – August 2006 - * * * * * 5 Stars
