I just landed in Austin and the weather is beautiful. I’m heading over to meet The Black Angels’ Kyle Hunt and his lovely wife Rachel. Kyle plays keyboards, percussion, bass and guitar for the Austin based group. It’s an exciting time for the band. They are currently working on their 3rd album with 60’s legend Roky Erickson of the 13th Floor Elevators. Erickson also an Austin native is the pioneer of the psychedelic rock genre. The Angels begin their fall tour Sunday at Stubb’s with the Black Keys.

The Angels & Erickson are playing together Halloween night at The El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles. They will open the show and then join Erickson set as the rhythm section.
