Sweet Japonic's sound has rapidly matured into an infectious blend of blues, roots, soul and reggae influenced rock music. After five years, Sweet Japonic has emerged as one of very few premiere bands in the West Michigan music scene. With deep roots in Grand Rapids , the band's substantial following is remarkably dedicated and diverse, and fans frequently sing along with the band. The 2006 sophomore album Two O'clock Sirens earned a WYCE Jammie award for Best Rock Album, adding to the band's previous Jammie for the '05 release Through the Eyes of Lucie Blue. Local success has lead to some unique opportunities, and Sweet Japonic is taking full advantage.
Great show last night at the Fling Barn! Can't wait to see you guys again. It's just a matter of time before you guys hit it big! Love the Freeway song! Stay hungry.
Hey guys! I'll be coming back thru GR for Halloween but it looks like you're not playing GR Halloween. DAMN IT. See you when I see ya....(hopefully more than one show a year!)
BTW, which one of you guys wanted to play the nude drinking/card games? We never did get to that, did we? Brett might have had some issues with it anyway. Oh, well... maybe next time! lol
Hey fellas, long time no see! Still rockin' the Take 5 set I see. I noticed you're branching out more and more. All good things! Wish I could hear you in person soon. Could be swinging back through GR near the end of October. Hope we can catch up ~ Z.
Hi Sweet Japonic.. Thanks for taking the time to listen! Great stuff you have especially "Over and over" Good luck with the album! I hope you have a wonderful day!! Have fun, Josh
