Formed in 1971 in London, England, Cymande is a band comprised of talented musicians from Guyana, Jamaica, and Saint Vincent. Their name is derived from a calypso word meaning dove, representing peace and love. They have developed their own unique style of music called Nyah-Rock, which combines funk, soul, reggae, and African rhythms. Initially finding success in America during the 1970s, Cymande's music has since been widely appreciated by influential figures in Hip-Hop such as Kool Herc, DJ Jazzy Jay, and Grandmaster Flash. Their captivating sound has been sampled by leading artists in the genre since the 1980s and featured in various films. After reforming around 2010, Cymande continues to captivate audiences with their live performances.

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 in the UK (and Janus in North America). Cymande went on to release three albums in the early-to-mid 1970s. Cherry Red Records are proud to reissue all three original Cymande albums. Their second LP, Second Time Round (1973), further developed their unique musical stew of funk, soul, Afro rhythms and Caribbean stylings, perhaps epitomised on the popular track 'Fug'.

CD - This reissue boasts two non-album single edits and new sleeve-notes written with the cooperation with the band and John Schroeder.
