Magic Bus

MAGIC BUS are a band that freely admits that they think they are still producing music of the psychedelic era of the 1960s and early 1970s. Their sound definitely conjures up early psychedelic jazz of Canterbury Scene bands CARAVAN, SOFT MACHINE and STEVE HILLAGE though it also takes inspiration from the psychedelia coming from the West Coast of the USA in the late Sixties (specifically JEFFERSON AIRPLANE, THE GRATEFUL DEAD, CROSBY, STILLS & NASH).

The band features one time KULA SHAKER member and OASIS sideman, Jay DARLINGTON on vintage keyboards, singer-guitarist Paul EVANS, Terence Waldstradt on lead guitars, and Viv GOODWIN-DARKE on flute. In 2011 the band self-released their self-titled debut album and, in 2014, the follow-up,'Transmissions from 'Sogmore's Garden'.
