About Me

The Parascopes are a punch of sixties garage psychedelic nerds from Vienna AustriaThe Hangmen: one of the best vocalist the band could get for this kind of music. he's a big collector of rare 60 punk and psychedelic records. he also got a huge wardrobe of nice original 60s jackets Deetee Vox: the so-called bandleader, ownes a few vintage Vox & HagstrÃ¶m guitars and an effectboard with a unique selection of fuzzboxes. He's the one who keeps the band on track Jimmy Juvenile: handsome, quiet leadguitarist loves being loved by the groopies, on stage he does that fuzzy twang sound, Georgie Boy: aka Airfix George, he beats his Rickenbacker bass like noone else, Ali Kay: the drummer give him one or two bottles of good red wine and he will never stop playing.The Parascope do a lot of unknown sixties coverversions but working on originals too, so watch out for there new stuff which is coming up the next few month
