Cymande

February 13 @ 7:00 pm 10:00 pm EST

Cymande is a band that blends funk, soul, reggae, rock, African music, calypso, and jazz.

Formed in 1971, they disbanded in 1974 but reformed in 2012 and released a new album in 2015.

After a period of obscurity, Cymande’s music was rediscovered in the 1980s and 1990s. Some of their songs were deconstructed and used as breakbeats by early hip-hop DJs Kool Herc and Grandmaster Flash.
