IHARAIRA STARR (FKA ISRAEL STARR) UNVEILS new reggae album
Reggae and roots powerhouse Iharaira Starr (formerly known as Israel Starr) is set to release his deeply personal and long-awaited new album “The Producers Chair Vol. 3. Way Finder. The Quiet Achiever”.
Marking a defining moment in both his life and artistic journey, the upcoming project heralds a formal transition to his te reo Māori name, Iharaira.
For years, the artist has carved out a revered reputation across the reggae landscape, capturing audiences with soul-stirring melodies and conscious lyrics. However, this new body of work represents more than just a musical release; it is a reclamation of identity, cultural connection, and creative sovereignty.
Iharaira’s most ambitious and expansive body of work to date, the 14-track album journeys through lovers rock, militant roots reggae, and experimental sounds that continue to push the boundaries of contemporary Pacific reggae.
