Edinburgh Psych Fest Announces Shame, Billy Nomates, Mandy, Indiana, the KVB, and More for 2026
Latest lineup includes modern post-punk & alt-rock outfit Shame, the acerbic lo-fi-no-wave-synth-pop of Billy Nomates, punishing industrial post-punkers Mandy, Indiana and psychedelic dark-wave duo The KVB.
Austin’s neo-psych-rock four piece Holy Wave, Alt-70’s-folk singer Alex Amen, hazy psych-garage-rock quartet The Heavenly Bodes and psych-grunge-pop duo Just Like Honey also join the bill alongside a trio of Edinburgh acts including energetic shoegaze four-piece Isabella Strange, poetic psychedelic trip-hop outfit Acolyte and scuzzy grungers Lucky Briar.
Taking place across multiple Edinburgh venues, including new main stage The Usher Hall, the festival promises another unforgettable day filled with mind-bending sounds, trippy visuals and a celebration of all things psychedelic.
Early bird tickets SOLD OUT.
