Groovy Movies to take 1960s-inspired psychedelic rock to the Pharmacy on December 12th
We recently introduced you to Groovy Movies, the new solo recording project of Nick Carlisi, formerly of The Tough Shits. From the band’s name alone, you can immediately detect a certain 1960s nostalgia. This influence becomes even more apparent on the tracks from the group’s self-titled debut, which are heavily inspired by the psychedelic rock of ’60s powerhouses The Beach Boys and The Beatles. Indeed, the group even channels the Beatles with their album art, using virtually the identical font that appears on the Beatles’ 1965 album Rubber Soul.
Groovy Movies haven’t been playing many shows of late, but they just announced that they’ll be opening for the local experimental rock three-piece Janelle at the Pharmacy on December 12th. If that’s not enticing enough as is, the $5 ticket will also get you a free tape of Janelle’s new album JNL.
You can find out more info about the concert over on Facebook. Meanwhile, listen to Groovy Movies’ debut below.
