Cymande

June 30 at 8pm

At The UC Theatre Taube Family Music Hall

Downtown Berkeley, Berkeley

"spiritual...versatile...smooth, sweet and very different"
"most important black British group of their generation"
Seating is first-come — arrive early or stand

Cymande invented a sound so singular it defies labels: Caribbean-born Londoners welding funk, soul, jazz, and reggae into grooves that shaped hip-hop and rare groove. After 50 years as "the most important black British group you've never heard of," they're finally getting their flowers.

They recommend it:
