Lovelace Roots
Taupuruariki Brightwell
From Mangawhai, Aotearoa, LoveLace Roots developed her love for sound system while living in London and fully immersing herself in the scene. Forming an affinity for Channel One Sound System, she began following the crew. Officially joining the team in 2006 and working solidly with them throughout the UK and Europe.
During this time she took all opportunities to advance her knowledge of reggae music and culture. Learning the intricacies of sound system build and runnings. Growing her collection and selection. Connecting with artists, players and crew. Embracing all the vibes and experiences of the strong and dynamic UK scene.
LoveLace Roots has a passion for roots reggae and steppers. Now back based in Mangawhai Northland where she grew up, representing women in reggae, forwarding the music and culture she loves.
