April 8, 2022 @ 8:00 pm - 11:00 pm

The Brian Jonestown Massacre
The Brian Jonestown Massacre is an American musical outfit led by frontman Anton Newcombe, formed in San Francisco in 1990. Their early music was in a shoegaze style; following their debut album, Methodrone, the group’s sound transitioned to a broader style of psychedelic rock, incorporating styles such as garage rock, folk rock and, later, electronica into their sound. The act continue to experiment with musical styles.

Mercury Rev
Alternative rock band from Buffalo, New York, formed in 1989.
Started as a collective to provide soundtracks for student films the band debuted in the UK as exponents of a psychedelic and experimental breed of indie rock, gradually revealing a more melodic, bittersweet sound. It wasn’t until 1998 that the band came to mainstream media attention, after further UK touring with their album [Deserter’s Songs](https://www.discogs.com/Mercury-Rev-Deserters-Songs/master/21353) which was given “Best Album Of The Year” award by NME.
