Reggae Opening Act Bedouin Soundclash On Touring With No Doubt
I’m actually kind of sad that I won’t be able to check them out on the tour, cause they are incredible, but reggae opening act Bedouin Soundclash gave a new interview with onmilwaukee.com since they are in town for Summerfest with No Doubt tonight. They mention how big of fans they are of each other, and what an honor it is to be opening for ND. Bedouin goes on just about how nice of people they are and how much fun they are having.
Before Gwen Stefani and No Doubt make their much buzzed about performance in Milwaukee at the Marcus Amphitheater on July 2, a rising musical sensation from Toronto plans to shake up the sonic hemispheres from its first note.
Originating from a Canadian city known for its cultural diversity, Bedouin Soundclash, a duo of Jay Malinowski on vocals/guitar and Eon Sinclair on bass, fuses the sounds they love. From reggae and punk to folk and soul, a fresh sound comes forth that leaves audiences dancing. No Doubt is among them. In fact, they hand-picked the duo as one of their openers for many of their reunion shows.
OMC: What’s it like to be opening for No Doubt and where would you place it among your many highlights?
ES: I think it’s amazing. There’s not too many big bands that can fuse reggae, ska and punk around. I can only think of two bands in the world that I think do it well and No Doubt is one of them. They’re really nice people and the shows have been great so far. We’re looking forward to coming to Milwaukee and playing the rest of the tour with them. It’s a great big step for us…especially since it’s their reunion tour, that they’re getting back together after five years since their last tour. It’s a huge honor and something we’re really excited about.
Bedouin Soundclash was AWESOME ! They only played for about 25 min. but I am a fan now!
