This site is a work in progress on 1960s garage rock bands. All entries can be updated, corrected and expanded. If you have information on a band featured here, please let me know and I will update the site and credit you accordingly.
I am dedicated to making this site a center for research about '60s music scenes. Please consider donating archival materials such as photos, records, news clippings, scrapbooks or other material from the '60s. Please contact me at rchrisbishop@gmail.com if you can loan or donate original materials
“Garage Hangover is an amazing social document” is a terrific quote. You should use it on any promo material you send out (like the movie ads do).
I don’t understand why you said “the tables have turned.” Were they not interested before?
