CARL REMDE - Bass, Vocals, Electronics

An unabashed Minneapolis-native Carl Remde’s world rock band Sunshine Allison brought warmth to the snowy Midwest for several years before Carl moved to San Francisco. His 6-string bass playing is percussive, funky, melodic and it lays the foundation for the band’s polyrhythmic explorations.

Carl just released his debut solo album, "Explanation Point," Here's what the SF Examiner had to say about it "Local multi-instrumentalist Carl Remde flaunts his eclectic musical taste on his debut solo effort, "Explanation Point" (Riggadig Records). The Bat Makumba bassist borrows Brazilian influences from the award-winning tropical-rock trio he co-founded and combines them with Louisiana-style swamp-funk, late '60s-flavored avant-rock a la Frank Zappa and subtle dashes of electronica."
