The Incredible String Band
The Incredible String Band are a Scottish acoustic band who (in the words of one of their earlier songs) "way back in the 1960s" built a popular following among the British counter culture, and are considered psych folk music pioneers. The Incredible String Band was formed in Edinburgh, UK in 1965 by folk musicians Robin Williamson, Mike Heron and Clive Palmer. They recorded their eponymous debut album in 1966, a lighthearted affair which revealed only the merest hint of the psychedelic adventures to come.

Matthew Shaw
“Matthew is one of the most fascinating figures on the UK drone underground, collaborating with thinkers like Brian Lavelle (as Fougou) and Andrew Paine (as The Blue Tree) while releasing music under his own name and the Tex La Homa pseudonym via a host of labels, including his own Apollolaan Recordings. His music delves deep in Hidden Reverse traditions, incorporating specific environmental soundings of occult landscapes into beautiful drone works that advance the oracular/hallucinogenic English underground tradition of Coil, Richard Youngs, Andrew Chalk et al.”

Sun City Girls
A melting pot of musical styles -- demented surf, Indian Rāgas, free-form noise, gamelan percussion, fractured folk, you name it -- with doses of kabuki theater, shadow puppetry, and maverick guerilla stagecraft, the avant-everything Sun City Girls were a fiercely independent and experimental trio. Their only credo seemed to be to continually stretch boundaries while remaining amazingly inclusive. This process led to a dizzying array of vinyl, cassette, and CD releases stretching over 20 years.

Jason Simon
As the voice of the celebrated psychedelic trio Dead Meadow since 1998, Jason Simon has helped craft many captivating, hook-laden songs while the band has enjoyed a successful, highly regarded decade-plus career. Simon's "wispy tenor" and "mystical lyricism" have been called "mesmerizing" by Rolling Stone while his distorted axe riffs and wah-wah pedal effects have been said to "ooze early '70s psych-rock power and experimentalism" by Spin.

Hexvessel
Hexvessel is a psychedelic folk-rock band that was founded by Englishman Mat "Kvohst" McNerney, vocalist for blackmetal bands Dødheimsgard and Code. He moved to Finland in 2009 and was joined by a coven of musicians from Tampere that feature members of Galacticka and Dark Buddha Rising. Fusing late 1960s and early 1970s English folk and psychedelia with a love for Finnish nature, pagan mysticism, folklore and the occult, they play a witches brew of acoustic balladry and heavy tripped-out atmospherics. Interior-world-music for secret ceremonies and forest rituals.
