About Band
Shemesh is a killer new band from Melbourne based around the song writing & vocals of Ronit. They have a distinctive and dynamic sound, like a ménage a trois between Janis Joplin, Jeff Buckley & The Pixies. Add to this melting pot a seductive Middle Eastern flavor & you begin to describe Shemesh (The Sun in Hebrew).
Shemesh formed in January 2004 and have since toured the Nation sharing their rich soul/folk/rock sounds live and on radio.
Comprised of Ronit on strong vocals and guitar, Clare Whitcombe on funky keys & soulful harmonies, Lucas Taranto bringing a smooth jazzy flavor on the bass and Jimmy Mileto laying down the rock on drums. The exciting chemistry between this four-piece-band takes the listeners on a musical journey of ear candy harmonies accompanying acoustic mellow tunes into an ecstatic rocked out frenzy.
