Einlass 19:00, Beginn 20:00

“Vintage hit-writing techniques, powerhouse performances.” - Pitchfork
“The Mystery Lights are as good as it gets, one of New York’s finest garage rock bands.” - NME
“This New York based five piece have got the blues, the soul and a whole loada funk in their scorching interpretation of garage/psychedelic rock.” - The Line of Best Fit

Founded in California and based in Brooklyn, the Mystery Lights play psychedelia-infused garage rock with a deep reverence for the sounds of the '60s but with a dash of contemporary cleverness and plenty of spirit. Full of guitars simmering in fuzz and reverb, vocals that plead or taunt, melodies that are both driving and trippy, and an abundance of lysergic sound effects, the group made their recording debut with 2009's Teenage Catgirls & the Mystery Lightshow, but they reached a larger audience with 2016's The Mystery Lights on Daptone Records’ imprint Wick. 

The Mystery Lights are set to release their new LP in Fall 2024.
