LIVERPOOL INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL OF PSYCHEDELIA 2014
“Liverpool, the great psychedelic capital of Europe” The Guardian
LIVERPOOL INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL OF PSYCHEDELIA continue their build up to September with a further round of artists spanning the head music cosmos. Californian beatniks ALLAH-LAS visit the festival in support of their sensational second LP, Worship The Sun, which drops in September and expands on their fusion of West Coast garage rock and roll, Latin percussion and electric folk.
Montreal celestialists and Jagjaguwar recording artists THE BESNARD LAKES are set to make the trip to Liverpool. Kaleidoscopic design guru and Black Angel CHRISTIAN BLAND hops across from Austin, bringing his REVELATORS along for the ride and the mesmerising GRUMBLING FUR call in, armed with a new LP set for release by The Quietus.
These additions join an already scintillating, globe trotting line-up, which is listed in full below. Full artist details are available at LiverpoolPsychFest.com. As well as the music, organisers are pleased to announce the following elements…
