We are pleased to announce that Love Psychedelico will be coming to the United States, arriving later this week in Los Angeles. They will be here for three months, writing new music and promoting their HackTone release This Is Love Psychedelico. Please stay tuned for announcements!!
Says Bill Friskics-Warren – (Washington Post / Nashville Scene fixture): “I can’t imagine This Is Love Psychedelico not making my year-end Top 10 list this year. The only record from 2008 I’ve enjoyed as much is Santogold’s debut.”
Love Psychedelico - BlogCritics review:http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/07/24/214922.php “Clear-cut rock and roll…captivating and infectious.”
Are you headed to Comic-Con in San Diego in a few weeks?
