“Some songs capture heaven for just a moment; Levitation Room find it even on the first strum of a guitar.”
“…everything you can hope for in the return of Levitation Room.”
“The ’60s psych love is still there, but the sound is opening up and growing wider, funkier and more soothing.”
Los Angeles psych rock gurus Levitation Room offer up one more taste of their upcoming album today with “Revelations.” Like listening from underwater, the rolling fluidity of the track is punctured by the band’s signature command over a guitar, contrasted with guiding, embracing vocals – Stream. The album Strange Weather will arrive in its entirety on February 16 via ONErpm / The Reverberation Appreciation Society / Greenway Records – pre-save / pre-order on vinyl here.
On “Revelations,” the band shared, “It’s a heavy one, with nods to Black Sabbath and early Tame Impala. Definitely one for the headbangers out there.”

So far off of Strange Weather, Levitation Room has released the singles and videos for “Scene for an Exit,” “Cool It, Baby” and “Heaven.” These releases marked an open-minded shift for the band, as they meticulously branched out from pure psych rock into all other facets of rock. The band’s return brought them local and international praise from MTV’s Spankin’ New, Consequence, Shindig! Magazine, Happy Mag, Grimy Goods, Atwood Magazine, Riff, and more.
First breaking into the scene in 2015 with their beloved EP Minds of Our Own, Levitation Room have been a centerpiece of the LA psych rock scene ever since. The subsequent releases of their albums Ethos (2016) and Headspace (2019), paired with extensive touring and festival performances across North America and Europe, have won the band a far-reaching, fervent fanbase and millions of global streams to date. They released a few singles during the pandemic but have been heads down working on new music over the last few years, returning now with a meticulously crafted next iteration of Levitation Room.
ABOUT LEVITATION ROOM
East Los Angeles quartet Levitation Room’s floaty, cosmic songs are always a trip. Since forming nearly a decade ago, they’ve self-produced dizzying, otherworldly music that’s connected with fellow travelers in the hallucinogenic world of outré rock music. Led by singer and guitarist Julian Porte along with founding members Gabriel Fernandez (lead guitar) and Johnathan Martin (percussion), the band has enchanted live audiences at Desert Daze and on tour with like-minded groups Post Animal and Psychedelic Porn Crumpets. The band’s vivid sound has found them placed on popular playlists like Modern Psychedelia and the legendary superproducer’s Danger Mouse Jukebox. Their 2015 debut, “Friends,” has surpassed 20 million streams.
Joined by new member Kevin Perez (bass) in 2021, Levitation Room have continued to expand their colorful, unearthly sound, a process that has culminated with the upcoming vibrant new album Strange Weather. Collaborating with former Brian Jonestown Massacre keyboardist Rob Campanella, Jason Kick (Mild High Club), and Black Crowes’ Joel Robinow, Levitation Room take a new step in their story and vision with this album. The record’s lyrical narratives—about love in the park, life in the city, and the fact that “The world today is such an illusion”—are appropriately steeped in ’60s sonics and a dreamy, lo-fi atmosphere. It’s spacey, celestial guitar music for escaping into, and “it feels just like heaven.” Join Levitation Room on their new voyage toward Strange Weather on February 16, 2024.
