Spores Magazine Launch ft. Floral Image + Espuma

Spores Magazine is created by a community of musicians and artists intent on documenting and celebrating the blossoming post-pandemic UK psychedelic scene.

Our mission is to nurture and promote the bizarre and the wonderful, the original and genre-bending music and art emerging and to help it spread beyond.

Join us this 1st November at Hackney's Paper Dress Vintage to celebrate our launch with live music from some of the artists featured and copies of the magazine on sale.

**FLORAL IMAGE**

Since their emergence in 2019, Norwich’s Floral Image have presented and exposed psychedelic rock with ferocity, articulacy, and a heliolatric, near-hedonistic sense of revelry. Amalgamating the pumping acid house grooves of the mid-90’s with the spluttering drive of early 70’s psychedelic titans Hawkwind, as well as a wistful dash of brightness from modern neo-psych acts like King Gizzard and Babe Rainbow, Floral Image find a luscious assonance in carefully measured chaos.

**ESPUMA**

Espuma, a band like no other in London, blends 90's shoegaze, latin rhythms, and 60's psychedelia into a high-octane performance that leaves fans chanting for more. Their anticipated EP ‘Carrera Cósmica’ promises to capture the same electric energy that has captivated audiences onstage.
