Рет қаралды 13,394
8 ай бұрынCymande are the greatest band you’ve likely never heard of and this is their incredible untold story. Formed in south London by musicians who came to the UK from the Caribbean as part of the Windrush generation and led by Patrick Patterson (guitar) and Steve Scipio (bass), they combined jazz, funk, soul and Caribbean grooves to create a new sound. Their music was political, spiritual - they were all about peace and love, a dove was their symbol - and ahead of its time. Illustrated with archival footage, the story of these unsung heroes is told on screen through new interviews with the original band members filmed over two years.
In cinemas 16 February 2024. On BFI Player and Blu-ray 26 February.

I went last night... literally the only thing I didn't love it about this documentary is that I had to watch it sitting down! It is absolutely gorgeous - emotional, important, spellbinding. I had this beatific smile printed on my face the whole time. Though I'm really kicking myself for missing them *in my local park* in 2018!

I first discovered Cymande through P2P Soulseek in the early 2000s. Have the three albums on every format and has been a constant part of my life ever since. What a wonderful surprise to see this doco has been made. Finally some respect and kudos to these amazing musicians. But it's alright, you can still go home.

In the UK most definitely! In the 70's no airplay, no promotion! Maybe you're a little blinkered in your experience!
