West Coast Tour

UME is the featured band on November's West Coast RUMBLE TOUR!

"Always the best part of these parties, as with the 21st Street Co-Op’s South By South Mess I hit, is the local talent owning the show. Austin’s Ume brought some of the most sultry garage pop since the Yeah Yeah Yeahs crowned Brooklyn king of the pulse, lead singer Lauren Larson bashing the guitar on her knees for kicks." - Paste Magazine South By South Mess Review

Chromewaves Review of Ume at Horseshoe Tavern, Toronto

"songs that balance sweet pop hooks with snarling heaviness, equal debts to punk, stoner, shoegaze and alt rock, insane guitar abuse/heroics and awesome hair-whipping from frontwoman Lauren Larson and an audience awestruck and won over." - Chromewaves . More pics from the show here.

Brooklyn Vegan CMJ Party Review

"Ume started the day with their poppy and suprisingly heavy take on 90s post-punk that is both powerful and charming. Outside of her devilish coo, Lauren is an enigmatic guitarist; all flailing hair, swinging arms, and wild movements. If this band didn't have such catchy songs, you'd probably be content just watching" - Brooklyn Vegan
