Their debut album, Keep Rising, was unveiled in May 2008 in New Zealand, with the band releasing it in Australia and Hawaii the following year. Collaborating with Grammy-winning engineer Errol Brown, their sophomore album Island Vibration, released on February 14, 2011, made history as the first reggae album in New Zealand to debut at Number 1. In 2013, they released their third record, Harmony which peaked at number 24, as well as a string of non-album tracks including "Sheâs Mine" (2014), "Jah Love" (2016), "Anything You Ask For" (2017), and "Peace & Love" (2017).
