Its a concoction of ambient progressive tunes mixed with the reggae and blues groove. we like to think the songs do the talking! we try to incorporate a touch of everything! so listen and decide for yourself! we aint gonna tell you what to think...
Reviews:
"Their pretty much unique sound in the indie world worked its magic on the judges from Hey Molly to win against record deal 4****Lovers, the Bays own Palm Mute and Exeter's A Trace Farewell. In the prize bag simplicity picked up a single session at Mojo Studios, a professionally mastered pr pack from award winning photographers Blue Tungsten, and a headline slot at the Sundown Festival!!!
Congratulations boys!!! "

Simplicity Complex formed with the original lineup in 2005 playing hard fast funky rock. In the true nature of rock & roll and random events we evolved into playing acoustic blues,jazz,funk and even classical. The Chilled Ambient Sound enabled us to win Torbay Battle of the Bands 2007.
