Fans of modern psychedelic rock are going to be in for a real treat when The Dandy Warhols and Kula Shaker come to town.
Truth be told, we try never to miss a Dandy Warhols gig in the Bay Area — and, really, it’s probably been a couple decades since we did — because we absolutely dig this Portland act’s intoxicating mix of different rock styles, brilliant songwriting and, in general, unflinching coolness.
They’ve released a pair of the best albums of the last 30 years — 1997’s “The Dandy Warhols Come Down” and 2000’s “Thirteen Tales from Urban Bohemia” — and are still putting out intriguing new music (see last year’s “Rockmaker”). Plus, they’ve got one our favorite guitarists in the game — the mighty Peter Holmström.
London’s Kula Shaker got off to a very quick start in its career, with the band’s debut album — “K” – topping the U.K. album charts. They are currently on the road in support of last year’s “Natural Magick, which zoomed all the way to No. 1 on the U.K. indie charts.
Details: 8 p.m. Oct. 8; Regency Ballroom, San Francisco; tickets start at $53.90, axs.com.
