Warren Maxwell (g, keys, vox), Rio Hemopo (b) and Riki Gooch (d) were TrinityRoots. Together, they formed the single most important popular musical group to emerge from New Zealand in the past 15 years. From their formation in Wellington in 1999 through to their final gig in February 2005, they were the standard bearers in our country for great songs, even better live shows and unselfconscious virtuosity . Their sound is soul embedded in humility.
But enough superlatives. TrinityRoots released just two albums in their career, and I've selected one song from each.
Just Like You has a particular story behind it - it was recorded around a campfire (that's the crackling you can hear) on a farm in the middle of the North Island - late in the evening of 11th September, 2001 New Zealand time. Just a few hours before the terrible events that unfolded on the East Coast of the United States.
