Like a cross between a post garage rock band, that you would find on your favorite Nuggets collection of bands, Los Angeles outfit Mystic Braves makes fuzzy, dusty, and pleasantly chunky psych-rock with California vibes for days. Mystic Braves has accomplished so far a great deal, in terms of music and live gigging, in its five years of existence. The road-warrior five-piece has perfected its far out, low-key freak-out of a set through tireless touring , but that hasn’t kept them from dropping three increasingly gnarly and surprisingly enduring albums that sometimes call to mind a sand-surfing trance in the key of Creedence Clearwater Revival (only subtler, more dreamy, and less soulful).
For a little taste of what you can expect from the band’s groovy live performance, dig the video below. Next, get out your best paisley duds and over-sized sunglasses.
