Pacific Dub is an American reggae band from Huntington Beach, California, formed in 2008. The band consists of lead vocalist and guitarist Colton Place, lead guitarist Hunter Porter, drummer David Delaney, and bassist Nathan Ueda.

History

Pacific Dub was formed in 2008. They released their debut EP, First Drop, on March 9, 2009. On August 28, 2009, they released their first studio album, Fire Eye. On April 20, 2010, they released another EP, To The Sky.

On June 26, 2012, they released their second studio album, Tightrope. The album debuted at #1 on iTunes Reggae Charts and allowed the group to headline their first national tour.^[2]

In 2015 and 2016, the band went on hiatus to rest from touring.^[3] On February 17, 2017, they released the EP Take Me Away, their first new music in 5 years. The next year, on May 25, 2018, they released their third studio album, Guide You Home. On March 22, 2019, they released their fourth EP, Riptide.

On June 25, 2021, they released their fourth studio album, Million Pieces. According to frontman Colton Place, the album is "100% a byproduct of the downtime that came as a result of the (Covid-19) Pandemic" and during that time the band had gained a new process for writing and recording from being able to take a step back and reprioritize when (they) were all forced to slow down.^[4]

In October 2022, Pacific Dub released the single "Live That Way", which was co-written with Kyle Ahern of Rebelution. In the summer and fall of 2023, they went on tour across the U.S. with Tunnel Vision.
