Cymande (pronounced Sah-mahn-day) are a legendary funk group formed in 1971 in
London by musicians from Guyana, Jamaica and Saint Vincent. Their name was
derived from a calypso word for Dove, symbolizing peace and love. The band were
signed by producer John Schroeder to his Alaska label. Cymande went on to
release three acclaimed albums in the early-to-mid 1970s, boasting much-sampled
classics like The Message , Bra , Dove and Brothers On The Slide . Following
some well-received reunion shows, Cymande are now back with their first album in
four decades, reuniting original members such as Patrick Patterson and Steve
Scipio with John Schroeder. In the build-up to the release of A Simple Act Of
Faith, Cymande play several shows in the UK and on the continent. These ten new
songs were recorded in the UK, with the first sessions dating back to 2011. But
despite its protracted development, the album boasts a unity which harks back to
their 70s heyday!
