Namrock House: Solomon Islands Reggae

Jimi Akwai Nare Ramosaea is a Solomon Islander living in Bacchus Marsh… and he’s bringing his reggae band, Namrock House to The Coolroom at The Northern Arts Hotel 

Meet Namrock House, a unique band from the Solomon Islands now making waves in Melbourne. With eight talented islanders who have called Australia home for over 20 years, Namrock House brings a fresh blend of island reggae, Solomon Island folk songs, and reimagined country and rock hits.

Their live performances, often featuring collaborations with artists like Charlie Mamorossi, showcase their dynamic fusion of reggae with other genres. From their recent Natty D tour around Melbourne to regular gigs at the Bacchus Marsh Strawberry and Cherry Festival and Relay for Life, Namrock House is a staple in local and Pacific Island celebrations.

Their shows aren't just about music—they're a vibrant cultural experience that bridges the Solomon Islands with Melbourne.

Catch Namrock House to experience a musical journey that celebrates the rich heritage of the islands while blending seamlessly with Australia's diverse soundscape.
