Bronze

Night 2 features smooth sensations Bronze (with musicians from longtime Windy City bands like Axis Sova, 1900s, Michael Columbia, Mahjongg, and Cave) diverting into a unique set of edgy 80s movie soundtracks like Cat People, Manhunter, and To Live and Die in LA. Pop-psychsters HEAD have been laying down their brand of spacey chooglin for several years, and the first-time duo of viola goddess Whitney Johnson (aka Matchess) and cello/synths/vocalist Taralie Peterson (of Spires That in the Sunset Rise/Tekla Peterson) will surely surprise and reach for the heavens. Opening Saturday is kosmische travelers Spiral Galaxy, featuring Psych Fest organizer Plastic Crimewave and painter/flautist Sara Gossett, joined by special guests Jimmy Lacy aka ambient voyaging SiP, and country weirdo-polymath Lawrence Peters on his minimal percussion, including washboard!
