Updated: The Strawberry Alarm Clock heads back to the Whisky a Go Go for a headlining gig on Saturday, Nov. 13, 2021.
The date was rescheduled from July and then from February due to the pandemic.
It will be the L.A. band’s seventh appearance in a dozen years at the historic Sunset Strip rock venue, headquarters for the psychedelic scene of the 1960s and still going strong.
SAC bassist George Bunnell says his “favorite thing about playing the Whisky these past few years has been the enthusiasm from the new generations of psych fans. We basically feed off of that.”
“They weren’t around for the summer of love, but they really want to feel that experience. I think people generally are happy to exist in their own time, but that’s not to say they can’t dream a little.
“We’re happy to be their guides!”
The Strawberry Alarm Clock are Bunnell, keyboardist Mark Weitz, drummer Randy Seol, guitarist Howie Anderson, percussionist Gene Gunnels and multi-instrumentalist Steve Bartek.
SAC’s most recent album is “Wake Up Where You Are.” That CD will be available at the show, as well as fresh band merch such as psychedelic logo T-shirts and coffee mugs.
Visual effects for the SAC gig come from Robert Jacobs’ Midnight Sun Light show.
