Bedouin Soundclash July 8, 2009

The power trio Bedouin Soundclash formed in 2001 at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario. Unlike most musicians who try to mimic their musical idols, the members of Bedouin Soundclash forge their own musical paths, creating music embodying each member’s personal and diverse musical preferences. With the seductive combination of lead singer Jay Malinowski’s soulful wail and hypnotic rhythmic guitar grooves, Eon Sinclair’s deep, dubbing bass, and Pat Pengelly’s driving rhythms, Bedouin Soundclash creates its own innovative fusion of reggae, rock, punk, and soul. In 2006, the three-piece took home the Juno (Canada’s Grammy) for New Group of the Year. Bedouin Soundclash’s third album, Street Gospels, released in 2007, features the singles “Walls Fall Down” and “1259 Lullaby”, the latter of which appeared on the hit series Grey’s Anatomy. Bedouin Soundclash will be opening for No Doubt.
