PSYCH FEST #2 03/13-15 @ Radio Room, Austin, TX

Friends, Austinites, countrymen, lend us your ears: THE BLACK ANGELS and LIVE MUSIC CAPITOL present PSYCH FEST #2 Friday March 13th through Sunday March 15th, in Austin, Texas, spiritual birthplace and global epicenter of psychedelia. What better way to honor the cradle of consciousness than a festival of hallucinogenic sights and sounds celebrating the town's musical heritage and spotlighting the best new vanguards of the most mind-bending music ever played? With a line-up featuring such acclaimed acts as Austin's own THE BLACK ANGELS, joined by A PLACE TO BURY STRANGERS, DEAD MEADOW, THE WARLOCKS, Sky Sunlight Saxon of legendary garage rock innovators THE SEEDS and a constellation of rising underground stars from Austin and around the world including THE WOODEN SHJIPS, INDIAN JEWELRY, THE STRANGE BOYS, THE GOLDEN ANIMALS and many more, the doors will be rocked off their hinges. This year's Fest also features Austin's psych cult heroes, THE GOLDEN DAWN performing their 1968 album 'Power Plant' from start to finish. Your three-day key to the doors of perception is a scant $45 (or one day doses for $15 ) available online on www.LiveMusicCapitol.com and in Austin record stores - Antone's Recordshop, Waterloo, End of An Ear, Encore, & Cheapo.

A thousand people showed up to last year's festival, and it became a word-of-mouth phenomenon:

"The daylong happening elicited the high baptismal glow of the bygone Vulcan Gas Company."

-Austin Powell, The Austin Chronicle


"The Black Angels are making history come alive...[Psych Fest is] ground zero for Austin's post-millennial psychedelia."

-Sean O'Neal, The Onion


Psych Fest #2 resurrects the free-thinking spirit of the sane-minded individual through the universality of great music, honoring The Vulcan Gas Company and the innovators that played there. Non-conformists and seekers are welcome, and the uninitiated are invited to come explore outer and inner space in an atmosphere of psychotropic bliss, because blowing minds is our business.

With liquid light projections by Adam Demetri and Scott Conn, artwork by Christian Bland and The Vulcan Gas Company (1967-70), and classic trip sequences by I Luv Video and Austin Underground Film.

Event Hours: FRI 8:30pm-close, SAT noon-close, SUN noon-close
