Ozric Tentacles in Athens

Ozric Tentacles are an English instrumental rock band formed in 1983, known for psychedelic space rock built around guitar, synthesizers and electronic rhythms. Guitarist and composer Ed Wynne has remained the central member across albums including Pungent Effulgent, Erpland, Strangeitude and Jurassic Shift; “Eternal Wheel” and “Sploosh!” are among the group’s best-known tracks. The band took shape at Stonehenge Free Festival and spent its early years performing on Britain’s free-festival circuit, distributing self-released cassettes at shows. A 1991 performance at The Fridge in London was later issued as Live at the Fridge, while the group’s wider festival history includes Glastonbury Festival.
