Welsh psych maestro releases a solo single. With a full-length album to follow in September.
A recent release that's getting heavy rotation on my Spotify account is this two track single by Pixy Jones. Lead track 'I'm Not There' is a strong dose of lysergic psych-pop, laced with tremelo guitars, reedy organs and harmony vocals. It comes backed with a bass-heavy dub version of The Beatles 'And Your Bird Can Sing'. Search it up psych fans! (Or listen below via the super handy embed).
Who is Pixy Jones I hear you ask? Turns out the fella has form. As guitarist/songwriter with El Goodo he helped make the band's Zombie album such a hugely enjoyable listening. Both the Zombie album and the new solo single are released courtesy of Strangetown Records, a label run by Cian and Daf from Super Furry Animals.
If you like what you hear you'll be pleased to know that Pixy Jones is set to release a full length LP called Bits n Bobs on 16th September. Judging by its cover and the strength of this single, I reckon it will be one of the year's must-hear albums.
