Artist Spotlight

sOUSALVES is a New York City group exploring psychedelic atmospheres that seem to buck any definable subgenre or trend, referencing instead psychedelia with a modern twist. The group explores sounds that are "as raw and rough as MC5 and as intense and energetic as circa 1967 Jim Morrison." But while their reference point may be the sixties and early seventies, the production is clearly modern and crisp.
