During their gig at the Tokyo Kinema Club on May
17th, rock and blues pair GLIM SPANKY announced
their long-awaited 1st major album release 'SUNRISE
JOURNEY' on July 22nd.
Vocalist Remi Matsuo and guitarist Hiroki Kamemoto
met during their high school days in Nagano prefecture, assembling in
2007 and getting their first break in 2009 when they were elected as
finalists at Flash Riot, an all teenage rock festival that
puts the freshest new acts head to head for a chance at one million
yen and various new musical equipment.
Like young Brit Jake Bugg and Ireland's The
Strypes, GLIM SPANKY ride the wave of the 1960s and 1970s guitar
revival scene, with Remi's husky voice and Hiroki's bluesy rock
guitar backing taking them to new heights, captivating audiences
everywhere they go.
The duo will also be releasing their 2nd single
'Riaru Onigokko' at the beginning of July, which will feature in
legendary filmmaker Sion Sono's latest ultra-violent feature length
Riaru Onigokko, an adaptation of a novel by the same name.
