On the show this time, it’s the sexy '60s and psych of the Mystery Lights.

The Mystery Lights are inspired by '60s and '70s psychedelic music, but not defined by those old styles. They also pull from their original Salinas, California punk rock scene, and from Daptone-style R&B, country, and hip-hop. Now based in New York, the band has embraced working with Daptone alumnus and super-producer Wayne Gordon.  Always groovy, always high energy —  their latest is called Purgatory and is available on Daptone Records.
