Sweet Japonic is a folk rock and blues band from Grand Rapids, Michigan. Together they fuse Blues, Rock, Folk, Funk, Soul, and even Reggae into eclectic rhythms that carry both an old flavor and new flair. [http://www.grandcircusmedia.com/sweetjaponic.html] They have emerged as one of very few premiere bands in the West Michigan music scene. The group has a great local fan following that is remarkably dedicated and diverse. Their 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.MySpace|sweetjaponic|Sweet Japonic]

Sweet Japonic has seen a boom in popularity since they were recently selected by Coca-Cola and Paste Magazine as one of 40 up-and-coming bands, and were featured on both Coke and Paste’s websites as part of their 'For the Love of Music' campaign. FreePlay Music Publishing (New York, New York) signed the band to a publishing deal and several movies have requested to license their tracks in upcoming feature films.
