Dubdoubt are a six piece Australasian band who are widely recognised as one of the most exciting emerging acts coming out of Brisbane, Australia. The band has a strong New Zealand affiliation with singer/songwriter Hayden Andrews hailing from the Wairarapa.
Dubdoubt have been winning over Australian audiences with their unique blend of funk, dub and reggae since their conception in 2001, and boast a rapidly growing international fan base. They are regarded as one of Australia’s most dynamic live acts and as a result have become a quintessential part of the summer festival circuit, where they consistently play to full capacity crowds. Their distinctive sound is infectious, uplifting and full of positive vibes.
GIG REVIEWS:
Big Day Out Gold Coast 2007
“Early in the day at the Hot House Stage, local funkmeisters Dubdoubt are bringing down the house with a large and clearly dedicated fan following whose day is kicked off perfectly with the group’s brilliant sunny vibe and energetic style”. Time Off, January 2007
ALBUM REVIEWS:
Too Many Days (2008)
"Damn this is a catchy little EP. To be more precise, this is the kinda dubbed-out funk that you expect to come out of NZ via Salmonella Dub and Fat Freddys Drop. Chilled yet brisk in it's pace, six tracks across 30 minutes, Dubdoubt have pieced together a journey that'd be right at home as the soundtrack to a lazy canoe trip across a sun soaked blue lagoon. 'Frank, do me good' is a standout for me." Scene Magazine, May 2008
Sunshine & Scenery (2006)
“Summer is upon us again folks… this means summer vibes, and summer tunes, and with the release of Dubdoubt’s debut LP Sunshine and Scenery, Brisbane has found its summer soundtrack.” Time Off, January 2007
"The sound, as the album title suggests, is fresh and colourful. The horn section adds just enough depth to the sound without becoming tedious and overbearing. There is a similarity with the likes of Fat Freddy's Drop, but the sextet has managed to keep the sound original. Being Brisbane boys (mostly), they have added testimony to the diversity of the local music scene. No doubt, the sounds of Dubdoubt will be heard coming from parties and beachside car parks up and down the coast for many summers to come". Sunshine and Scenery (Fresh bread) 8/10. Tsunami Magazine, February 2007
What's that flavour? (2005)
"Well summer is here already, so it’s fitting that a dub record be one of the first great summer releases. Six local guys make up dubdoubt and boy, do they know how to convince the listener to have a cold beer on a hot afternoon. Muter trumpets, funk-ridden bass and inventive saxophones make it clear that Hayden Andrews and Co. are ripe to take Salmonella Dub’s crown. Not before time too. Just take one listen to “Reggie” and for a few minutes you won’t have a care in the world. Scene Magazine, December 2005"
