PSYCHEDELIC SUMMER: SOOOOON!


RARE Gallery is pleased to present a group exhibition and independent record shop curated by Seattle-based collaborative studio CMRTYZ. Including original artwork by John Malta, C.M. Ruiz, Cassie Ramone, and Matthew Volz, Psychedelic Summer promises to be this season's weirdest happening. Stocked with vinyl, limited editions, and assorted lo-fi merch by Bachelor, Captured Tracks, CMRTYZ, Family Time, Floridas Dying, HoZac, Obey, Psychic Lunch, Woodsist, Vice, and others, the shop will occupy RARE from June 24 to July 24. The Beets and The Babies perform on opening night, Thursday, June 24.

Psychedelic Summer brings together artists from around the country who share a commitment to the resurgent lo-fi music scene. Characterized by a strong DIY punk ethos, all of the work in this show maintains the grittiness and dreamy quality of the lo-fi music that inspires it.
