Pacific Heights - New Album

Posted on on 15 August 2008 by Andrew Thompson


After a 5 year hiatus, Pacific Heights returns with an eagerly awaited second album In A Quiet Storm.

Pacific Heights is the solo project of Devin Abrams, a leader in the underground New Zealand music scene renowned for his production talents and energetic stage presence with Shapeshifter.  www.pacificheights.co.nz

 

In A Quiet Storm features some of New Zealand’s favourite vocalists such as Fat Freddy’s Drop’s Joe Dukie, Shapeshifter’s Pdigsss,  Ladi6 and Lisa Tomlins.  Devin also introduces the new talent of Christchurch’s Mara TK, jdubs, Aeries, Mark Vanilau and Sacha Vee.

 

In A Quiet Storm is a blend of nu soul, hip hop and synthesized fusion which results in a great representation of New Zealand’s progression in modern soul music.

 

Devin has had an extremely busy and successful career to date.  He has released four albums, two EPs, and one mix CD to date with Shapeshifter and Pacific Heights, as well as doing session work and remixes for a range of top New Zealand acts. Devin also constantly DJs around New Zealand and Australia in the genres of hip-hop, soul, jazz, disco, house, funk, broken beat and drum and bass. There are no signs of this talented musician slowing down.
