Under the Stars: A sip of Magic Fig's 'Valerian Tea' - 48 hills
""Flammarion," the lead single from their upcoming debut full-length album, Valerian Tea, out later this month, the track both symphonic and harmonic features a full sound palette-piano, synthesizers, glockenspiel, organ, 12-string acoustic guitar, and electric guitar-that radiates warmth, eccentricity, and groovy textures. From the initial keyboard run to the MTV fonts in the visual, we are time-traveling from the jump."
"San Francisco certainly has a rich history of psych-pop groups, right? Well, Magic Fig is the first band to celebrate the works of Camille Flammarion, a 19th century French astronomer and author who had a deep interest in the spiritual and metaphysical realms. This psych-pop supergroup consists of Inna Showalter (vocals, mellotron), Jon Chaney (keys), Muzzy Moskowitz (guitar), Matthew Ferrara (bass), and Taylor Giffin (drums), all of whom are members of various bands, including The Umbrellas, Healing Potpourri, Almond Joy, Whitney's Playland, and Blades of Joy."
Magic Fig draws inspiration from Camille Flammarion, a 19th-century French astronomer and metaphysical thinker. The lead single 'Flammarion' from the forthcoming debut full-length Valerian Tea layers piano, synthesizers, glockenspiel, organ, 12-string acoustic and electric guitars to achieve symphonic, harmonic warmth and eccentric, groovy textures. The single's visual evokes retro MTV typography and time-traveling sensibilities. The band features Inna Showalter, Jon Chaney, Muzzy Moskowitz, Matthew Ferrara, and Taylor Giffin, each active in local projects such as The Umbrellas and Whitney's Playland. The project aims to explore alternative musical realms and create low-key, mind-altering listening experiences. Pre-orders are available.
