The Magic Gang released their self-titled debut album to a warm response from music critics in March this year. With a tour in Spring and a flurry of festival appearances over the Summer, the band are treating fans to another tour, honing their energetic live shows to a fine craft.
Evidently raised on a diet of Beatles and Beach Boys, The Magic Gang bring jangly guitars, beautiful harmonies, and songs about love to the foreground. The chilled optimism of The Magic Gang will be wonderfully paired with the sardonic, self-critical lyrics of Fred Macpherson’s Spector.
