About
MidMay is a Vancouver-based Alternative-R&B group fronted by Tom Shand and Jacob Regehr. Tom & Jake have been collectively working together for over ten years. Over the past fifteen years, they have worked together on different projects and finally have the opportunity to carve out their space in the indie music scene together.
The name MidMay came from their birthdays. Jacob, who would have been born just one day before Tom, but was born six weeks prematurely. Tom and Jake both sing, lending to the distinctive, full sound and diversity of genre from R&B, funk & soul to jazz and rock. MidMay combines their wide-range of musical influences into their sound - including, The Beatles, Radiohead, Hall & Oates, Simon & Garfunkel, Donny Hathaway, Carole King, Amber Mark and Stevie Wonder with their inspiration and deliberate, careful writing.
MidMay is transforming and pushing the bounds of Alternative R&B in Vancouver's post pandemic music scene. Their two singles, "Bordeaux" and "Keefer Street' have racked up over 350,000 listens on Spotify and they will be releasing the first song off their debut EP "Sounds in Stays" December 2024.

Keyboard/vocals led the way and blended well with the sexiness around them. The bass and drums moved me, but the sexy solos always grabbed me. Delicious.

Keyboard/vocals led the way and blended well with the sexiness around them. The bass and drums moved me, but the sexy solos always grabbed me. Delicious.
They started slow, which allowed me to bust out some sexy flailing, gliding around to their groovy, sexy bedtime jams. Slowly, they got faster and picked up the pace to a sexy cover of '1979' that was so much fun. Great offering.backdrop that brings to mind some of the R&B-pop hybrids of the 90s."

"Combining indie pop, soul, and R&B, MidMay's new single "Bordeaux" offers listeners something a little different. The dual vocals are the stars of the song, while the music creates a groovy backdrop that brings to mind some of the R&B-pop hybrids of the 90s."
