About Herbs
Herbs is a multi-cultural New Zealand reggae group that was led by singer-guitarist Dilworth Karaka, the only constant member since its foundation in 1979 until his death in 2026. From inception, that band has featured Samoans, Tongans, Cook Islanders and Maori members. The band was the 11th inductee into the New Zealand Music Hall of Fame. Although their last album of new material was released in 1990, Herbs still perform in New Zealand and Australia.
