Based On A True Story won a raft of awards, including Best album at the NZ music award and Album of the Year from Gilles Peterson Worldwide at BBC. Steeped in dub, reggae & dancefloor electronica, B.O.A.T.S. is rhythm heavy with luscious coatings of jazz, soul & funk, rooted in Aotearoa & delivered with that laidback Island attitude.
