The Kore Ionz, uniting in Seattle from multiple corners of the globe, balance roots reggae with dynamic rock and world rhythms, producing high-energy grooves with a conscious message. Water for roots. Love of reggae. Fire for rock.

The Kore Ionz believe a community must support itself in order to rise together and are currently donating 50% of their new album’s (Half-Hour Revolution, 2008) proceeds to the Service Board, a local non-profit which provides life-changing programs for marginalized youth. The Kore Ionz are inspired, committed, and believe music to be a powerful vehicle for the growth of communities and individuals.

The ethnic makeup of the group represents five continents, with musical backgrounds equally as diverse, resulting in a global sound and culture that is their own. Promoting awareness of social injustice and the need to build a caring intragenerational community, their message is urgent and from the heart.
