NERiMA

Staying true to both punk-rock roots and a love for the modern alternative scene, young Toronto-based NERiMA explores a boundless mix of genres in their sentimental music. With influences ranging from rock bands like The Smashing Pumpkins and Paramore to alt-indie breakthrough artists such as Weezer and Wolf Alice, this new and growing band showcases a variety of sounds: upbeat instrumentation with fun vocals, mellow songs with softly-sung, hard-hitting lyrics, and much more in between.

NERiMA is Alexi, Vee, and AJ — three musicians mixing their diverse tastes into one distinctive sound. With the vast musical backgrounds of each member, NERiMA’s passion is driven by lifelong musical interests, inspiration from their favourite artists, and admiration of music’s place in society. While most members have long histories with their love of music, all three continue to explore its growing place in their life through their dedication to this band and its sound.

The band will release a new E.P. this fall – a loud, energetic and passionate collection of  alt-rock songs showcasing the band’s mature, darker sound – a huge step in a new direction after their successful debut ‘HAVE MORE FUN.’ The EP is produced by Nothing Special’s Dan Bell and mastered by Kyle Marchant (SilversteinBoys Night Out). NERiMA hopes to reach as many other people — ​especially young ones like themselves — ​with passion-driven music that will show the world what they’ve got.
