              Formed in 2001 after a session at the infamous  
              local Raglan Musicians Club, the original       
              three-piece outfit singer/songwriter/guitarist  
              Brian and drummer Turongo Dixon and bassist     
              Naomi Tuao formed the rhythm section of         
              Cornerstone Roots. The music at that time was   
              raw and riddim focused with a mix of            
              contemporary styled ska/roots/soul and reggae.  
                                                              
              The band quickly developed a strong local       
              following with many of the early shows being    
              filmed and recorded by fans. This prompted the  
              band to record their first EP One Fine Day in   
              2001 where they set about touring provincial    
              New Zealand where the cafes were crammed and    
              live shows intense. By the following year the   
              Corners had released debut album Soul           
              Revolution, described by some reviewers as      
              brilliant and impressive.                       
                                                              
              The album was recorded in Wellington with       
              engineer Lee Prebble at Surgery where the       
              rhythm tracks were recorded live in one         
              weekend. The album release was backed up with   
              20 date tour of NZ ending at the Wellington     
              Town Hall supporting powerhouse rhythm section  
              Sly and Robbie.  The band have evolved many     
              times since its humble beginnings and now       
              feature Jonathan Crayford on keyboards and      
              Aaron Bush on percussion.                       
                                                              
              Recent shows have been described as intense     
              with the impact of a hammer hitting an anvil.   
              June 2007 sees Cornerstone Roots release a new  
              album Free Yourself and following up with the   
              Free Yourself Album Release Tour.
