An underground neo-psychedelic artist.
Seattle psych folk band, Forest Ray, began as a recording project in 2015, combining guitar driven psych rock with elements of garage rock, folk rock and organ-laden pop. They've been described as "Brit-pop gone country" or as "..The Band covering Beatles songs no one knew existed.” (Tony Kay, Washington's Artist Home blog). The group's sound has evolved into spaced-out, down to earth rock n' roll, that feels “like a perfect companion for a long dusty road trip” (KEXP, Chris Sanley) Their sixth studio album, Windfucker, was released in January 2024 after they completed their first European tour through six countries (Croatia, Slovenia, Austria, Czech Republic, Germany and Switzerland) over five weeks. “The new album from the Seattle outfit is a solid blend of Americana, psych and indie-rock. Peter Sumic’s classic storytelling style is driven by a rich sonic tapestry of guitar, mandolin, banjo, pedal steel, harmonica and percussion, making Windfucker (jebivjetar) feel like a perfect companion for a long, dusty road trip.
