Frankie and the Witch Fingers — psych punk at the Atabal
Music · Psychedelic rock · Atabal
American psych punk at full speed on 27 November. One of the most intense outfits on the current psychedelic rock scene, in a room built for exactly that.
Frankie and the Witch Fingers are one of those bands you have to see live to understand. The records give you an idea; the stage gives you the rest: songs that accelerate to breaking point, an implacable rhythm section, and a relationship with the audience closer to punk than to contemplative psychedelia.
The rock Biarritz is short of
The Basque coast is not overloaded with demanding rock dates, and that gap is precisely what the Atabal fills. This is one of the three or four autumn bills that on their own justify the trip out to La Négresse.
The local tip
Down the front if you are here for the music, back of the room if you are here with company. And check the full line-up before setting out: this date was announced with support acts still to be confirmed.
The record gives you an idea. The stage gives you the rest.
