Triptides

Los Angeles-based psychedelic rock group Triptides, led by multi-instrumentalist Glenn Brigman, began in the summer of 2010 as a series of home-recorded tape machine experiments. The band has since released six full-length albums along with several singles and EPs. Their music beams through realms of sonic clairvoyance complete with melted guitars, swirling Farfisa organs and vocals like sunlight through the fog. An ecstatic reflection on a dream shared by "all who were there", the paean to enlightenment encapsulated by 'Nirvana Now' takes Triptides sun-drenched psychedelia to new glorious new heights. Awash in aural delights emanating from a Wurlitzer electric piano along with Epiphone Casino and fuzz guitars, the song has all a seeker of psyched-out bliss could ask for. Shimmering with dronalicious sitar, Farfisa organ, 12-string guitar and Beatlesque bass, 'She Is Dressed In Red' is a perfect marigold comedown after spinning the A-side at maximum volume.
