The Mystery Lights and The Britanys play Berling on 02.26

“Thee in thy panoply” is how Walt Whitman addressed a bi-coastal 19th century freight train, though his words easily apply to NYC’s Mystery Lights as well. Their garage-psych panoply is pure Sixties, albeit a variegated Sixties, which makes sense given their origins in California. The band recently won the Psych category of our Best of NYC 2015 Readers’ Poll. They will be playing LES’ new rocking basement Berlin on Friday February 26 with The Britanys – also a garage sounding, Deli award winning NYC band! – Brian Chidester
