Spiritualized

Spiritualized is a British rock band whose concert takes place at Bristol Beacon, a concert and performance venue in Bristol. The band plays psychedelic rock and space rock.

Spiritualized is a British rock band formed in Rugby in 1990, playing psychedelic rock and space rock. Its first album, Lazer Guided Melodies, was released in 1992. The project was founded by Jason Pierce, who had previously been a member of the band Spacemen 3, a link that places Spiritualized within the British psychedelic tradition of the late 1980s and early 1990s.

The music combines the long, drone-based textures of space rock with the song structures of psychedelic rock, so a concert by the band is shaped as much by sustained sound and repetition as by individual songs. Anyone interested in that lineage can trace it back through Spacemen 3 to the early 1992 album and the band's subsequent recordings.

Bristol Beacon is a concert and performance venue in the city, and this evening is a concert there by Spiritualized. The night suits listeners who follow British psychedelic rock and want to hear the band's catalogue performed live on a visit to Bristol.
