We’ve had to wait a while – pressing delays are the rule rather than the exception these days – but The Violet Mindfield’s new album is finally available. That’s good news for fans of fuzzy 60’s garage rock / beat music, because the Californian band – John Duran (lead vocals, guitar, organ, harmonica, percussion), Harry Parr (drums, harmonica, backing vocals), Sean Mcbreen (bass), and Victor Salazar (guitar, backing vocals) – masters the analog genre to perfection. California Burning consists of 14 raucous songs that contain all the elements that make this kind of music so irresistible (and possibly remind you of classic hooks at times), guaranteed a good time.
California Burning is out now digitally and on vinyl LP through Outro Records.
