The 1960s were a time of change, revolution, myth and legend.  Nowhere was this more evident than in music.  A new style, psychedelic rock, broke out of its L.A. garage and blasted onto the airwaves and into the subconscious. This mind-bending alternative to the standard pop fare was a collage of fuzz, tremolo, improvisation, angst and energy.  It was an unrestricted and fresh approach that smashed and morphed established forms and formats into something weird and wonderful.

With their unique and individual sound that even then defied categorization, The Electric Prunes stood at the forefront of this musical revolution.  These “seminal philosophers of punk rock” helped invent the genre with their psychedelic classics “I Had Too Much To Dream (Last Nite)” and “Get Me To The World On Time”.   Steven Van Zandt called “Too Much To Dream” the psychedelic national anthem and Mojo magazine named “Get Me To The World” as one of its top 25 all time psychedelic records.

But that was then. The Electric Prunes are back and are bringing the past into the present.  Their distinctive blend of slithery vibrato-laden guitars, pounding drums and slinky driving bass is definitely alive and well. This is no tired oldies band.  They perform with the same passion and power as before. Not content to live on history, the band continues to evolve and change and push the boundaries while remaining true to their roots and original sound. This is the real deal playing the real music as only the creators can.

Remember the feeling of attending live concerts during the Summer of Love?  Come on back home.  Wish you’d been there in 1967?  Here’s your chance.  The Electric Prunes offer you a possibly once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience what is was like back in that exciting, eclectic, electric and eccentric time.  An Electric Prunes concert is full throttle immersion in the sights and sounds of the 1960s.  Each show, with it swirling images and vibrating music, is its own individual experience. 

The Electric Prunes are alive and firing on all cylinders, making music with the same power and passion that symbolized a generation.  We dare you, set your transporter to 1967 and step on in.
