Sim Redmond Band, Little Tempo

The Sim Redmond Band returns to Japan after a three-year absence!

This special show will also feature Little Tempo, in a rare club appearance.

"The sounds of the Sim Redmond Band can wash over you and make you feel something akin to that content half-awake bliss you feel after spending a few hours basking in the summer sun: warm, relaxed, yet undeniably energizing. Their infectious blend of African-influenced reggae-tinged roots rock combined with beautifully sung lyrics full of hope, love and lessons learned give the band a deeply honest, positive sound. With three talented vocalists in the group, Jen Middaugh, Sim Redmond and Nate Silas Richardson, you never quite know what kind of vocals you're going to get from track to track, but one thing is certain, they rarely disappoint. From the horn-filled reggae funk groove of "Potholes" to the almost orchestral beauty of "Lately," Each New Day is a portrait of a band who is skillfully crafting their own unique sound and doing it on their own terms. Not much for solos, this is a band where each member contributes greatly to the overall sound, and the whole is most definitely much greater than the sum of its parts. "
