At long last, DIZZY MYSTICS out of Winnipeg, Canada are ready to serve their debut album chock full of psychedelic flavours simmered in funk with just a dash of metal. “Wanderlost” will reach ideal serving temperature on May 3, 2019, and is sure to satisfy anyone with an appetite for Tool, Primus, Frank Zappa, and Steely Dan.
The self-released album contains 10 songs each containing the recommended daily servings of groove, intensity, melody and catchy vocals with the singles “Diamond Duller”; “The Frequent See, Consistent Seas” and “Letter”, which all have been pleasing the critics that got their hands on them. The album was self-recorded; mixed by John Paul Peters (Private Ear Recording, Winnipeg); mastered by Ed Brooks (Resonant Mastering, Seattle) and the album artwork was crafted by Ben Duncan.
The band comments:
“Dizzy Mystics are thrilled to announce the release of our debut LP “Wanderlost”. We have set out to encapsulate our diverse range of musical influences into a genre-bending rock experience. Every possible emotion we have felt bleeds through these songs in their own unexpected sonic twists and turns. See where it takes you, and enjoy!”

BIO:
Dizzy Mystics Soup for the Rocker’s Soul;
2 cups Psychedelic
2 cups Progressive
1 cup Hearty 70’s Metal
3 tbsp. Jazz
3 tbsp. Funk
2 tbsp. Folk
1 tbsp. Soul
A pinch of Celtic Pepper is optional
(Measurements of each ingredient are subject to change for each batch made)
As the recipe implies, rock music is the spoon that stirs the soup, and no genre (or spice) is out of the question for Dizzy Mystics. Climbing out the stock pot in 2015, Dizzy Mystics are a psychedelic rock band based out of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. One can expect a dynamically diverse, tastefully complex, and energetic dose of adventurous hard rock with feet moving rhythmic swagger, and stargazing melodies.
“It is clear that Dizzy Mystics may be among the most unique of the vibrant Canadian rock scene to be delivering tracks that will leave fans of classic, progressive, and 90’s alternative rock excited for what is to come.”
– Canadian Beats
“Mysticism aside, this band certainly got the “dizzy” part right! The Winnipeg rock quartet Dizzy Mystics offer up a staggering musical concoction that, considering its progressive and experimental flair, is surprisingly radio-ready. Think Rush and Primus drinking wine with Tool before dropping acid with Frank Zappa and checking out a jazz club with Steely Dan. Dizzying, right? Jokes aside, frontman Kyle Halldorson, guitarist Alexandre Joyal, drummer Jeffrey Laird and bassist Aaron Bacon have some serious chops and, with the right amount of work, gigging and outside help, this Canadian act has the potential to not only see the end of the tarmac, but to also take off!”

“Diamond Duller moves and groves, in interesting rhythms, changing from one beat to another, shifting and clanging with energy. The vocals bring about high energy and ensure the listener is hooked from the get go.”
– The Median Man
“The quartet has crafted a psychedelic and progressive sound upon many others including melodic hard rock and funk. The band takes you through a heavy and psychedelic trip on their latest single.”
