Scott Hepple & The Sun Band (GB)

Scott Hepple and The Sun Band are Newcastle’s cosmic merchants of psychedelic and garage rock, beaming straight from the golden era of the '60s and '70s. With a sound that fuses Neil Young’s soul with Black Sabbath’s grit, they don’t just play music—they time-travel through it. Their debut album, Ashes to Wildflowers, was recorded all-analog with Duncan Lloyd (Maximo Park) and mastered by Chicago’s sonic wizard Carl Saff. The result? A raw, unfiltered trip into the depths of fuzzed-out, sun-drenched psychedelia.
