Jahfayah is a young UK based African Reggae singer and chatter. Bringing the styles current in Botswana to the west, Jahfayah has linked up with Devon-UK based studio musicians Gurner and Ras PJ to form Afro Reggae Records
Pete Middleton (Gurner) first heard Ital Dub with
Christine from Alpha & Omega, which kindled his interest in Reggae.
After this he co-formed the classic addition of the Charlie Hearnshaw Quartet, with middleton on Bass, Pete Jacobsen on Piano & Andy Hague on Drums. Middleton produced the So Slam It LP (1990), with a recent Japanese Reissue on Disques Dessinee.
Around this time Middleton formed &; led seminal South West England Latin Band, Caldera UK. This featured Alan Sharp, designer & maker of natal congas.
In the late 1990's, and now known as Gurner Pete joined The Rurals (A Deep House Setup from Devon, with various floating members, and a unique house sound) Playing Bass & Latin Percussion on many of their most successful tunes, including Lush, So Alive, That Feelin & many more.
Together with fellow rurals member Pete Morris & South Devon Reggae Veteran Ras PJ (Pete Jeram) A Romany Gypsy, they formed Satta, playing Roots Reggae in 2005.
Since then while Pete Morris works with Pappa Teacha in Plymouth based band the Rooticles, Gurner & PJ have formed an association with African Reggae Singer, Jahfayah.
Gurner has also recorded Marie Tweek, the brilliant Soul Singer from The Rurals, in his Bat Cave Studio - recent Single, Fight Back reaching No.6 in the American Upload Charts.
Now Gurner is actively working on the Afro Reggae Label with Jahfayah & Ras PJ, first Single Release (on Zimbalam) Herbalist, was internationally on 13th September 2010.
