The legendary ‘nyah-rock’ and British funk group Cymande will release a new album after a break of nearly four decades, according to The Vinyl Factory.

Cymande will be reuniting with their original producer, John Schroeder, who discovered the band in a Soho nightclub during a rehearsal in 1971. He was there to see a rock band but the gig had been cancelled, and he stumbled upon these West Indian musicians. He soon signed the band and recorded their initial single "The Message."

The new album is titled A Simple Act of Faith and will include 10 songs, with some of the recording sessions dating back to 2011. It will be out on the 27th November on CD and vinyl via Cherry Red Records.
