THE VIOLET MINDFIELD (USA)
Southern Californian The Violet Mindfield is an American rock band devoted to 1960s garage rock, surf and psychedelic sounds. The group consists of John Duran (lead vocals, guitar), Harry Parr (drums, backing vocals), Victor Salazar (2nd guitar, backing vocals), Sean Mcbreen (bass) and Clifton Weaver (multi-instrumentalist). The band merges classic pop craftsmanship with their retro sensibilities to establish their place in the 60s inspired music scene. These releases led to greater attention on their live performances resulting in appearances with other prominent “retro inspired” acts such as The Sextones, Native Sun and Lenny Kaye at the Nuggets 50th Anniversary party. The Violet Mindfield experience is always energetic, fun, and stylish.

THE RECALLS (CL/ES)
Spanish-Chilean band The Recalls released three albums in the course of their existence. Their sound evolved into a mix of sharp garage-rock vs warm retro-pop, eastern flavours and sun-drenched folk-pop vs dark drone-rock and neo-psyche... an album with many roads to follow and suprising turns.
