As the high season comes to a close, we want to celebrate touring bands Chakra Shakers and Geography of the Moon with a Chiang Mai-styled welcome party. Expect all the sultry dream wave music of Echo Resort and Geography of the Moon sandwiched between some raucous psychedelic noise, math rock, and indie-alt of Chiang Mai based Fuzzmonkey Superbuzz and Terror Terror and Portugal-based Chakra Shakers.
It's a rock n' roll pool party ;).

Band Bios:
Chakra Shakers:
Chakra Shakers' are a DIY international touring band formed in Portugal in 2023. The band is Joe Mac (USA), Natasha Dow (UK) and Stephen Kyle (Canada). They don't seek fame or fortune. They just want to play sweaty, passionate, fun gigs all over the world; 'Our gift to you is a moment of carefree abandon through the Rock'nRoll that saves us'.
Joe Mac is the primary songwriter. his genre is his life journey as a musician. It started in the late 80's in Punk bands in California ('Suckerpunch', Ebullition Records), then shifted to 90's Portland DIY and Indie ('Dark Skies', Empty Records), followed by wild and loose Memphis Rock'n'Roll ('Vegas Thunder', Sympathy for the Record Industry), then Austin Honky Tonk, then Appalachian HillBilly, then busking on the streets in Southern Europe and now travelling the world through music with 'Chakra Shakers' and 'Wild Flowers'.
Scientists, Natasha and her late husband Paul had been enjoying a peaceful retired life of golf and music in Portugal. After his death she wanted to keep his spirit alive through music. She threw herself into music full-force and found a new way to live and to love; travelling the world with 'Wild Flowers' and 'Chakra Shakers'.
Stephen has recorded and toured internationally with 'District 5', 'Postmodern Hope' and 'Ligers'. He has a workspace and recording studio in the Portuguese hillside.
The Chakra Shaker EP 'Sexxy Mess' and their Cambodian inspired single 'Unsmashable/Soksaby' are available on Bandcamp and all streaming platforms.

Geography of the Moon:
Largely influenced by bands from the 80s and the 90s, somewhere between psych rock, post punk, pop, new wave and indie rock, GOTM create their own brand of mashed up styles: Death Pop.
The Scottish-Italian/French duo got together in East London in the summer of 2016 and later moved to Glasgow. A haunting voice and indie style lyrics laid on hypnotic looped layers of guitars and drum machines, with killer guitar solos.
On stage, they like to go with the flow and often end up improvising improbable melodies, creating beautiful and strange new soundscapes. The band embarked on a never-ending tour in 2021 after joking they could play 1000 gigs in less than 10 years.
Their 2020 album Fake Flowers Never Die caught the attention of BBC radio 6 DJs, added by Vic Galloway of BBC Scotland to his 25 bands to watch out for in 2021 list, and was nominated for the SAY Award [Scottish Album of the Year].
Their EP The Unraveling (released in 2022) was featured as Record of the Week on BBC Radio Nan Gaidheal and Parisian station Le Village Pop. Additionally, their single “The Unraveling” was ranked No. 11 on the Scottish Herald’s list of “Top Scottish Songs of 2022.”
