The Spiral Electric

About The Spiral Electric

The Spiral Electric are a new psychedelic rock band from San Francisco, bringing a mixture of roaring guitars and orbiting synthesizer not heard this side of the galaxy since HAL 9000 dropped acid wit The Spiral Electric began back in 2009 as a duo, Clay Andrews and Nicolas Percey, getting together every week to play original music on guitars. That turned into recording and releasing songs, which turned into playing shows-- which they did as a duo, with Nico on lead guitar, Clay on rhythm guitar, keyboard, and vocals, and backing tracks filling in the rest. After one of these shows, Tyler Allen (of OUTLAW) informed the duo that he would be joining on bass, and they were too drunk to argue. After a single show as a trio, Tyler brought Alejandro Galvan onboard to play drums, and within weeks Ale's friend Daniel "Sugar-D" Lorimier joined on keyboards, percussion, and vocals.

The original duo's debut album is very near completion, and the 5-man band has already begun performing songs intended for the 2nd LP, for which preliminary recording sessions will begin in January.

The Spiral Electric perform live often around the San Francisco Bay area, at such venues as Thee Parkside, The Knockout, Brick & Mortar, and Hemlock Tavern.
