Uleåborg Festival of Psychedelia 2017: Electric Moon, Jess and the Ancient Ones, Albinö Rhino and More to Play

Posted in Whathaveyou on June 29th, 2017 by JJ Koczan

Oh, don’t mind me. Just posting about another awesome and totally weirded-out festival happening in Europe with a range of bands from the improv psych of Electric Moon to the anti-genre E-Musikgruppe Lux Ohr and back again through the post-Sleep lumber of Albinö Rhino and the cultistry of Jess and the Ancient Ones. The 2017 Uleåborg Festival of Psychedelia as fodder for daydreams? You bet your ass. Book my flight. I’ll be there in a second. Mind if I sleep on your floor? Hope typing at night doesn’t keep you awake. Ha.

I’ve never been to Finland — neither have Electric Moon, as it happens; Uleåborg Festival of Psychedelia 2017 will mark their first appearance there — but Oulu (aka Uleåborg in Swedish) has consistently had cool stuff happening. Tampere, which is about six hours further south by car, gets a lot of the credit as a hotbed, and fairly enough so, but acts like Oulu Space Jam Collective and Deep Space Destructors are clearly trying to make something happen up north, and their efforts here are more than admirable in pulling together bands from all over Finland and beyond.

Full lineup and fest schedule follows, as thankfully translated via the PR wire:

ULEÅBORG FESTIVAL OF PSYCHEDELIA 2017

Uleåborg Festival of Psychedelia is a collision point of new music and art, which is to be held third time on 14th and 15th of July in Oulu, Finland.

The two day festival reveals new experiences, re-finds what has been forgotten, questions the deadlocks of the mind and ultimately provides fun experiences in a colourful company.

Open your mind, now is the time.
