Grooblen

Channeling experimental psychedelic cabaret dreampunk into her performance alter-ego, Grooblen, San Francisco's Ellie Stokes’ healing work braids themes that are reflective, surreal, pensive, and whimsical. Inspired by musical artists Queens Of The Stone Age, Frank Zappa, Jeff Buckley, and XTC, critics have described Grooblen as "a playful and genre-diverse style of art pop, pulling from psychedelic cabaret arrangements, jazz pop, and surreal rock stylings.” (Under the Radar Mag)

Grooblen- a community-oriented band described by Psychedelic Scene as the “originators” of “psychedelic-cabaret-dream-pop-punk,”- continues to shine with the members’ individual talents: Drummer Sean Aaron and guitarist Spencer Lay spring out with intricate rhythms and melodies, joining the orchestral swell of Alejandro Lara-Agraz on bass, Eva Alejandra contributing vocals, Jack Lillian mixing in flute, guest bass and vocals, and Stokes’ lead vocal slashing through with equal parts power and delicate sadness.
