Magic Wands with Ross Angeles



Magic Wands



Magic Wands are back in the UK after 7 years. Magic Wands is a dream pop duo from Nashville,Tennessee and currently reside in Los Angeles California. They are best known for their melodic, catchy tunes 'Black Magic', 'Kaleidoscope Hearts' and 'Teenage Love'. These songs off their 2012 debut album 'Aloha Moon' landed them playing live on BBC1 Radio, being remixed by The XX and Crystal Fighters plus sharing bills with The Horrors, The Black Keys, The Kills and The Jesus and Mary Chain.



Chris and Dexy Valentine create music that centers on their main influences - the love of all things: magic, love and dreams. In 2016 they released their second album "Jupiter" which was described as "mixing elements of gothy post-punk and ethereal psych” by Brooklyn Vegan. In anticipation of their third album 'Realms' Magic Wands are bringing their dreampop sound to the UK and Europe this fall.



Previous press:

"Mixing elements of gothy postpunk and ethereal psych (with no shortage of hooks), their sound might best be described as "witchy." - BrooklynVegan



"Hazy blend of boy-girl pop" - Consequence Of Sound



"Dexy and Chris Valentine build an atmospheric and cutting guitar soundscape that beautifully foreground’s the former’s compellingly stoic vocal" - Spin



"['Heartbeat'] is a five-minute dream pop tidal wave kept aloft by a snaking post-punk bassline, with vocalist Dexy Valentine coasting above it all with serene cool." - Under The Radar



"LA’s Magic Wands actually tune their instruments so that their music will affect your brain waves through the practice of sound healing" - Galore Magazine
