Lichens (Robert Lowe)

…is where you’ll be if you hit the Sunset Tavern tonight. Going down (or up, as the case may be) there is what promises to be one of the psychedelic musical events of the summer. In this week’s Stranger, I rant here and here about Cloudland Canyon, and Steven Sawada and I discuss Lichens here and here, respectively. You already know how amazing guitarist Sir Richard Bishop is, so quit hemming and hawing and prepare to get your head exquisitely massaged by these highly evolved masters of transcendental drones and tones.
