Don’t let the name fool you, Magic America are actually a 4-piece swirling psych rock band from Melbourne. Formed in 2010, it’s taken four years, but the band have recently released their debut single and lucky for us they’re about to release a double A-Side single later this month.

The band have just released the video to their first single ‘I Though I Told You’, filmed by Fully Sick Film Clips and edited by Andrew Stapleton. Magic America blend brit-pop hooks with psyched out rock n roll vibes, they are the local band for fans of The Dandy Warhols, Oasis, and Primal Scream.

Having played alongside Drunk Mums, Stonefield, Lurch & Chief, and BONJA, these guys definitely have the chops to bring their hooky dream-psych to life on stage, be sure to catch them in action on Saturday 30th August at Yah Yah’s when they launch their double A-Side single.
