Posted by | Apr 29, 2019 | ,

Gabrielle Fiori is a name known to our resident psyche buff; from his Black Rainbows band that I saw recently at the Heavy Psych Sounds festival in London, to owning and running the Heavy Psych Sounds label, as well as being involved in Killer Boogie, he’s a man who obviously has very little free time to himself.
