ABOUT

Hi! We're a Hamilton-based collective that plays jammy psychedelic music that incorporates sounds and rhythms from around the world.

Our influences are eclectic. Some bands and artists that are big in our books include the Grateful Dead, Bob Dylan, Wilco, War on Drugs, and Radiohead. We love classic funk, soul, and R&B. At the same time, we're into Afrobeat and North African "desert blues" (Tinariwen, Bombino, Ali Farka Toure, etc.) South Asian folk and Indian classical music are also a big part of our musical DNA.

The music we are looking to create seeks to integrate our kalidescopic tendencies into a vibey, hypnotic whole. Right now, we have a funky drummer, a skilled percussionist, a talented singer/guitarist, and a classically trained keys player on board.
