W.I.T.C.H.

Get ready to dive headfirst into an electrifying sonic cauldron as W.I.T.C.H. (We Intend To Cause Havoc) conjures their psychedelic brew at the Teragram Ballroom on August 25. For those in the know, these Zambian legends are the godfathers of Zamrock—a genre that marries the raw grit of Western psych rock with the rhythmic heartbeat of Africa. Imagine Hendrix jamming with Fela, and you’re almost there. Doors creak open at 7 pm, and if you're not swaying to their intoxicating grooves by 8, are you even living? Grab your tickets in advance for $30 because it’s $35 on the day, and nobody likes to feel like they’ve missed a beat. All ages are welcome, so whether you’re a vinyl-spinning purist or a freshly-minted indie disciple, this is the kind of revelatory experience that’ll have you bragging to your friends for decades. Don’t let your future self down.
