Malaysian rock supergroup Jemson is ready to release their self-titled album after building their fan base and name over the last two years. The group led by guitarist, Najmi, and lead singer, Myo, are no strangers to the music scene having led 2 well-known independent bands and between them have 15 years experience of recording and performing some of the biggest shows locally and in the region. With this knowledge, the two formidable talents began their journey building their new project supergroup.
Jemson released their cheeky rock and roll EP “Balada Cinta Kosmos” that contained 5 songs in 2019 in conjunction with Cassette Store Day worldwide, which garnered them 2 hits “Pape Saja” and “Lagu Paling Kecewa Di Dalam Dunia”. Armed with their new songs the group began performing every gig and show spreading their music. Amongst the shows performed were AOR Festival, SWARA SUNYI 2020 TOUR (Jakarta), Miri International Bike Week (Sarawak), Gegey Fest (Kuala Lumpur) and opening for Japanese legendary rock group, LOUDNESS Live in Kuala Lumpur, and most recently representing Malaysia at the online Music Lane Festival Okinawa (Japan) featuring with other local and international acts.
Understanding that music fans are also very visual, Jemson put out 3 humorous, tongue-in-cheek Music videos with their EP available for viewing on their YouTube channel – Sakit Hati ft. Raz Azraai, Pape Saje feat AG Coco and Lagu Paling Kecewa Di Dalam Dunia.
Now in 2021, they are proud to finally present their debut album by releasing the first taste in a high-octane glam-metal meets The Ramones vibe track called ‘Lu Power’ featuring Noh Salleh of Hujan fame. According to the vocalist Myo, “LU POWER is one of 12 songs on our upcoming self-titled album. LU POWER is a witty song addressing the failing ruling system and the need to unify the music, art, and film communities, for a better future. LU POWER also features Noh Salleh rapping on the song, a talent he mastered even before HUJAN was formed, Noh used to rap in a local rap group called M.I.X.”
Very cool to see some fellow Asian extreme musicheads who live out here in the west (United Kingdom to be precise) also continuing to actually play music instead of...
