Out Now! Kingston’s JIMBO EP “Where The Vultures Gather”
JIMBO, out of Kingston, Canada is here to deliver their sophomore EP entitled “Where The Vultures Gather”, which is now available as of July 12, 2019. Creating and performing rock music with dramatic artistic value that blurs between dark psychedelia, JIMBO draws inspiration from groovy fusion, hard rock, goth rock, and shoegaze. Their goal is to first and foremost be musicians and artists that are able to create an immersive musical experience that will have a lasting effect on their fans. The band aims to create rock music that pays respect to the past, acknowledges the future but makes the listener dissolve in the present. Fans of bands like Soundgarden, Smashing Pumpkins, Alice in Chains and grunge influences will sure to be happy to sink their teeth into “Where The Vultures Gather”.
The new EP sits on the line between hope and despair, taking a step away from the current status quo by embracing 90’s alternative rock that doesn’t make concessions for the everyday listener, but is rather geared for the underground. With lyrical content aimed at those who find themselves in a ‘me vs. the world’ mindset, JIMBO is ready to add ammunition to attack mode.
The band adds:
“The tracks on this EP were decided early on as they are our favourite songs to play live and ones that we see get the most audience response. ‘Mamawawa’ and ‘Where The Vultures Gather’ were made to be headbanging songs made to play loud with aggressive guitars and drums. ‘Pyrethrin’ maintains that heaviness, but demonstrates the progressive rock tendencies of the band. JIMBO’s main goal is to make artistic rock music. We find most other bands nowadays embrace the internet culture and fads. You probably won’t get that vibe from JIMBO. JIMBO is darker than most of the bands that are in the scene right now.”
“Where The Vultures Gather” is now available for streaming and download on the following links:

“Let us introduce you to the budding Kingston, Ontario-based band, JIMBO. The group, who sell fiery and bluesy psychedelic rock ” – PureGrainAudio
“These three songs are quite interesting, especially if you love flashing guitar solos ” – Merchants of Air
““Where The Vultures Gather,” is a riff monster. With the drums beating down the listener’s skull it comes barrelling in, shifting and shaping the wind and blowing everything away with grace and power.” – The Median Man
“a great mix of alternative rock, dark psych and a drop of acid blues ” – Hard Rock Heavy Metal
“Jimbo is a solid band name and I was excited to have a listen to this psych-rock band from Kingston. “Thunderbird” opens their debut EP with a thumping pace before the guitars kick in with a classic blues driven lick. It’s a nice mix of 70’s hard rock and 90’s stoner tunes. There’s also a real face melter of a solo in this track as well. Grab this EP when ya got 15 minutes available to rock out.” – Kris Gies, Deli Magazine

Kingston’s JIMBO New Single ‘Mamawawa’ Off Upcoming EP Out July 2019
Self-Titled Sophomore EP Out July 12, 2019
JIMBO, out of Kingston, Canada is here to provoke the masses with their latest politically charged single ‘Mamawawa’. An acronym for the psychological concept men are men and women are women assumption the track explores an event that occurred at Queen’s University when a riot broke up during a controversial speech by Dr Jordan Peterson.
‘Mamawawa’ comes from the second EP from JIMBO entitled “Where the Vultures Gather” slated for release in 2019. Sitting on the line between hope and despair, JIMBO takes a step away from the current status quo by embracing 90’s alternative rock that doesn’t make concessions for the everyday listener, but is rather geared for the underground. With lyrical content aimed at those who find themselves in a ‘me vs. the world’ mindset, JIMBO is ready to add ammunition to attack mode.
A stealthy combination of alternative rock and dark psychedelia, ‘Mamawawa ‘ was written by Alex Van Der Heyden after him and Joe Narducci attended the event it was inspired by. They explain a bit of the occurrence:
“It became clear that there was no real dialogue between the Social Justice Warriors trying to shut down Peterson and the people who came out to hear him talk. The rioters shouted offensive slurs and violently banged on the walls and windows of the lecture hall. This just resulted in Jordan Peterson shouting louder into the microphone and his followers cheering and becoming more supportive of his side of the argument. It was like watching the divide in our society getting wider and wider and it was pretty heartbreaking.”
‘Mamawawa’ can be heard via its premiere on PureGrainAudio.com at the following link: https://puregrainaudio.com/audio/kingston-rockers-jimbo-get-political-on-their-fiery-new-single-mamawawa-song-premiere
