Documented collaborators
Hailing from London, The Herbaliser formed in the early 1990s as a collaboration between Jake Wherry and Ollie Teeba. They rapidly became one of Ninja Tune’s most recognizable acts, celebrated for blending live instrumentation with sample-based production to create a distinct sound that fuses jazz, funk, breakbeat, and hip hop. Over the years, they’ve released a string of influential albums under the Herbaliser umbrella and with their live band, shaping the nu-jazz and beat scene for decades.
