Indie Psych with Alecia: It’s not just a nostalgia show, not just a Paisley Underground revival—it’s about a myriad of sounds & grooves, and an evolution of psychedelic music. you will hear new alternative and indie performers as well as the musicians from the 60s that continue to inspire. Indie Psych plays the musicians that carry on the legacy of the psych sounds that you know and love …. jangly guitar, mellotron and moog, spacey jams, psych-rock, shoegaze, folkie… Indie Psych might introduce you to new bands and soundscapes you may not have heard of yet but will grow to enjoy. Music that melts in your mind… (and in your handy WSLR phone app!) More indie, more of the time. Tune in Wednesday mornings bright and early at 7.
