ABOUT IHIVA

IHIVA is a dynamic 6-piece, female fronted band based in Brisbane and the Gold Coast, Australia, delivering an energetic genre-blending sound they proudly call reggae reimagined. Seamlessly weaving elements of funk, rock, jazz, and drum & bass into a reggae foundation, iHiva creates music that is both rhythm-driven and message-rich, designed to move hearts, feet, and minds.

Since forming just before the global pandemic, iHiva has released four powerful singles,“Take A Stand,” “Judge Not,” “Message,” and “Sweet Music” each track delivering bold grooves and thoughtful reminders about the things we too easily overlook. Their music is alive with purpose, grounded in lived experience, and shaped by a deep belief in unity through diversity.

With a globally-minded ethos and an unmistakably electric sound, iHiva embraces their role as world citizens, storytellers, bridge-builders, and vibe-setters for a more connected world.

Thank you for supporting IHIVA

WAIT!

WHAT IS IHIVA UP TO?

The creative fire is blazing. iHiva has written nearly 30 original songs, each one shaped by real-life experience and cultural echoes. While a few tracks are in their final arrangement stages, the group is preparing to record three songs in their next studio session, kicking off a steady wave of new releases that invite listeners on an ever-evolving journey.

Offstage, life stays full, balancing careers, raising children, and caring for elders, yet iHiva continues to create in the spaces between. That’s where the music lives: in the truth, in the hustle, in the heartbeats of everyday people.

This is music for the movement-minded, by artists who carry both melody and message across genres and oceans. And it’s just getting started.
THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR SUPPORT.

TAKE A STAND

for immediate release

iHiva Debut single 'Take A Stand' OUT NOW

Standing in solidarity with those who suffer in silence, 'Take A Stand' is the

incredibly groovy and socially conscious debut single from five piece reggae

band iHiva. Their beautifully produced single 'Take a Stand' is based around a

strong reggae backbeat punctuated in the verses by jazz and funk style bass. Rock

guitar lines are woven into the chorus to drive it’s cathartic message and soulful

vocals take on the perspective of the wounded and offer words of strength and

solace. Euphoric brass stabs give the instrumental strength and you're sure to be

humming this tune all day long! iHiva reminds us that we all need a helping hand

from time to time and that we need to rediscover the compassion that is within us.

It’s on the news, every channel from across all nations a daily exposure to the sufferings of humanity. A nation gets attention, a community loud enough, gets noticed, a persistent group gets heard, but who hears the silent cry of a wounded soul?

The message is twofold, we ALL need a helping hand from time to time. Mental block, self doubt, fear, feelings of insignificance seep in unannounced crippling one's haven of self esteem and often leaving one to suffer in silence, alone. Reach out from this dark and lonely place, it's okay to not be okay. Many will go the extra mile to help you through your trials and tribulations. As the song says, ‘we’re stronger together. The feel of the song is reflective and very hopeful.

Something interesting happens during the creation process, tuned in to a certain frequency, words are felt, portrayed, it become a story, a belief 'each one of us can make a difference', becomes a song. When the experience is shared, it makes for a very swift process in writing and arranging the song. Our interpretation of this ongoing and crippling condition fills the recording studio with emotions that travel through our instruments to which we hope is felt as much as heard.

The ability to walk in someone else’s shoes, allows us to understand how we can help and make a difference in another’s life. A Story that hits the heart, Take A Stand was fully realized.
