Aunt Cynthia’s Cabin – Misty Woman

Aunt Cynthia’s Cabin are a stoner rock trio from San Diego and Misty Woman is inspired by a road trip through the desert landscapes of the South West.

Here’s a tune the algorithm generated for me. To which I am tempted to reply: “You know me so well, algorithm.” As so often, I have never previously encountered Aunt Cynthia’s Cabin, but I very much like this psych-tinged tune, Misty Woman.

Their desolate, sun-bleached sound – evocative of vintage motorcycles, LSD-fuelled parties and skulls nestled among cacti – was inspired by the scorched landscapes they encountered on a road trip from San Diego to Austin, Texas.

Brennan Justice (guitar, vocals), Anthony De Freitas (bass) and Jeremy Luvaas (drums) had previously played in a surf band, and chose the curious name of their new outfit to evoke a fictional 70s murder mystery novel.
