If the Pixies had a lovechild with Mazzy Star, and it grew up on a diet of garage rock and David Bowie, you would get Gateway Drugs. Self-described as "art after death," Gateway Drugs blend punk and garage rock with more mellow psych-pop elements. This young LA band is producing sounds unlike anything else coming out of the area.
Gateway Drugs may yet be unheard-of, but it’s not for a lack of pedigree. Three of the four members are the offspring of Prescott Niles, bassist of The Knack, whose hit "My Sharona" is a staple of 70s rock. The band's debut album "Magick Spells" was produced by Christopher Thorne of Blind Melon at Dave Grohl’s Studio 606.
Gateway Drugs brings their trippy mix of psychedelic garage pop to the RockBar Theater on Thursday, June 6.
