Helicon
+ Kavus Torabi (Gong / Cardiacs)
Helicon blend neo-psych-rock with sitars, electronica, ambient soundscapes and irresistible grooves to take psychedelic music into fresh, new territory.
They channel their love for 60s counterculture and eclectic, global music influences to create a modern and distinctive sound.
Helicon was formed by brothers John-Paul and Gary Hughes in East Kilbride, Glasgow. They signed to Fuzz Club in 2017 and have released 3 studio albums, 2 live albums, 2 EPs and 3 stand-alone singles to date.
Over the last few years, the band have been featured on BBC Radio 6 Music and previously collaborated on recordings with Tony Doogan (Mogwai), Will Carruthers (Spacemen 3, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, Spiritualized, Dead Skeletons), Mark Gardener (Ride) and LA-based DJ/producer Al Lover.
“Helicon show that musical borders are there to be broken… A force to be reckoned with.”
Shindig!
“The difference between Helicon and other ‘psych’ bands is that they have actual songs. Beautifully crafted songs alongside the they have actual songs alongside the big psychedelic freakouts”
Mark Gardener, RIDE
“I’ve been a fan since their early incarnation. Helicon have a recognisable sound but are always evolving, never afraid to try something new”
Martin Bulloch, Mogwai
