Tickets £8.00 in advance from the venue or £9.00 online
Original members of Cymande Sam Kelly (drums) and Jimmy Lindsay (lead vocals) will be performing Cymande material in honour and celebration of 35 years. Previous performances have been received with overwhelming feedback and the demand to revive this unique eclectic sound has been welcomed by Cymande fans.
The passion to perform the material still remains as strong as ever and their tracks have been sampled in many DJ freestyle mixes from The Fugees, Afrika Bambaataa, Groove Armada, Nightmares on Wax, David Massure and not forgetting Spike Lee's film epic 25th Hour which took up the majority of the film soundtrack.
For a chance to also meet some of the original members, don't miss this the opportunity relive a very special moment in the root history of deep funk and indulge in those special moments from yesteryear with tracks like Brothers On The Slide, The Message, Bra and many more.
Sam Kelly's current outfit Sam Kelly's Station House will form the musical nucleus and a few surprise guests from the era have been invited to join in to perform in celebration.
"...to hear it being performed ‘live’ with the excitement of the band and what the music generates, plus receiving the audience reaction, it’s still inspiring and puts so much musical value and that groove is still as infectious today as it was then".....Sam Kelly
Cymande fans know how to party, so be prepared to move and groove those dancing feet!!!Cymande Latest: |
