Welcome Watermelon Sugar to NYC: live at Glasslands on 10.26

Notwithstanding the borough’s permanently rising rents and their dim earning prospects, psychedelic artists keep moving to Brooklyn at a record setting rate – even though pot isn’t legal over here just yet! Tacoma’s Watermelon Sugar belongs to this category, and The Deli is happy to welcome them to this land of musical dreams! The band plays a rocking brand of psych rock that references at once the "out there" pioneers of the late Sixties and the poppier British bands of the late Eighties, with an abrasive guitar based sound that’s reminiscent of the early Flaming Lips records. Their self titled debut EP doesn’t have one "meh" song in it. Go check them out at Glasslands when they headline the October 26 show.
