Bonding over a shared love of NZ music and passion for making their own, Six60 formed after meeting at a Kora concert in 2006. Three members flatted together as Otago Uni students, spending countless hours in their recording studio (Eli's room) at number 660 on notorious Castle St.
The six60 sound is unique - a fresh Kiwi fusion of roots, reggae, hip hop, dubstep, and drum and bass. Sell-out concerts, lots of gigs coming up, watch this space….
Rise Up 2.0 debuted in the Official New Zealand Top 40 Singles on 6 September 2010. It has been in the Top 40 Singles for 20 weeks with a highest position of #1. There are four songs by Six60 in the Top 40 Singles with one reaching Number One.
