L.A. Witch

[1][2] Founded by L.A. natives[3] Sade Sanchez (vocals, guitar) and Irita Pai (bass), the band's sound has been described as a "mix of forlorn psych folk, lethargic lo-fi blues and boozy garage rock drones steeped in moody, drugged-out surf reverb.

"[4] The group's influences include Black Sabbath, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, and seminal L.A. punk rock bands X and the Gun Club.

"[11] The band toured extensively before releasing its eponymous debut album in 2017,[12][13] recorded at Hurley Studios in Costa Mesa and mixed in Highland Park, Los Angeles.

[14] Their second album, Play With Fire, was released in 2020, followed by a cover of the Gun Club's Ghost on the Highway.

[16][17] Joining the band on its 2022 European tour was guitarist Lauren Andino of the Los Angeles-based duo Tremours.
