Ideally, with two guitarists, we’d be looking for drums, bass, additional vocals (lead or background—preferably lead), maybe keyboards (esp. if we want to go for a more Floyd-ish sound).
About us: I’m Kris, 36, orig. from Kansas City; been playing guitar for 23 years. The second guitarist is named Jimmy, he’s 25, orig. from Shanghai, he’s been playing guitar for 6 years. We both live in San Francisco.
Our guitar setups are different. I forgo the use of pedals and use a mac or iOS device with software for my effects. Jimmy uses guitar pedals. Neither of us have a vehicle tho, I’m just being honest for the sake of simplicity.
Our main mission musically…is not simply to rock the fu*k out, but spread good vibes, like they did back in the 1960s. Peace and Love and Fellowship and hanging out and taking drugs with your friends kinda vibes.
In post-election America, the people need art desperately now more than ever. If that isn’t enough impetus for artists I don’t know what is.
(It is worth noting; we align with people who do have a proclivity for substances of dubious legality, HOWEVER, we are not addicts nor are we dependent on said substances, YOU SHOULDNT BE EITHER.)
Send a reply back, also, if you have a link to a or be or spotify you can send that along as well. Perhaps a quick intro in yourself, your instrument, your style of play, influences and what drives you to create music. (Also, if possible… tell me your Western Horoscope sign & your Chinese Animal sign please.)

Influences
The style of music would be considered primarily “psychedelic”; however that isn’t the only genre that influences us. Our main influences being, Pink Floyd, The Doors, Grateful Dead, The Beatles, Jefferson Airplane. A lot of 60s style psychedelic is very much in our DNA.
