empty cell Cymande
Cymande is a British musical group formed in 1971 by musicians with Caribbean roots. Their composition style includes funk, soul, and afrobeat, often incorporating reggae and jazz elements. Their first, eponymous album ''Cymande,'' released in 1972, became a cult classic, pushed into the spotlight by singles like ''The Message'' and ''Bra''. After disbanding in 1974, the band reformed over two decades later, continuing their career with albums such as ''Renascence''. Cymande's sound has resonances of other funk icons like The Meters and Funkadelic.
