Remiah are a three piece band from Harpenden/Luton in the United Kingdom. The band was formed in October 2003, and produces powerpop music perhaps most closely resembling the sounds of R.E.M..1
The band members are Paul O'Gorman, the band's main songwriter, lead singer and guitarist, Steven Condell, who plays the bass guitar, and David Drake who plays percussion. Christopher Sullivan guested as the bassist although he is not a recognised member of the band.
Remiah has had local gigs at pubs and music venues in and around Harpenden. "The Inn on the Green" in Harpenden and "The Horn" 2 in St. Albans being the most frequented. In the summer of 2006 it played a number of concerts in Ireland. The band claims to be influenced by such bands as Rage Against the Machine, Muse, Incubus, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin and Faith No More.
After a very unproductive year in 2006, the band went on indefinite hiatus, finally splitting up in late 2007. After a number of years apart the band reformed in the summer of 2009 joined by a new female member, Laura Hamilton who plays keys. The filming for a music video took place in the autumn of 2009.
