—Starting four years ago as a wishful music fantasy, The Third Mind has now become a powerful and thrilling sonic reality.

This same extraordinary cast of like-minded musicians who recorded that first Third Mind album, return for a new one.

New Single ☄️✨THE THIRD MIND “Pretty Polly” drops today! “I was driving to LA for the first Third Mind gig, (about 1000 miles). I was in something of a state and was listening mostly to classical music and jazz, things like Alan Hovhaness, Arvo Part, Coltrane.... but my music was playing on random as I drove down I-5 and at one point around dusk, Judy Collin’s 1968 version of Pretty Polly played. I pulled into rest stop and thought immediately ‘I need to hear Jesse Sykes sing this song.’... I played it again and looked up who played on the Judy version - Jim Gordon on drums, Steve Stills, Van Dyke Parks on keys, Chris Ethridge on bass, Buddy Emmons on pedal steel, James Burton on guitar... the song was literally screaming for us to play it... it was the first thing I knew would be on our third album the moment I heard it.” - Victor Krummenacher @krummenacher “I was not familiar with the song Pretty Polly I’m embarrassed to say, as it’s an ancient and traditional song. I was instantly intrigued when I heard the Judy Collin’s version because it sounded like The Fairport Convention, and that version was the motif from which we drew from. It’s a powerful song to embody and I love singing it, because I feel Polly’s desperation come out of me, along with the ghosts of many women who’ve ended up murdered by a man they had presumably once trusted.” - Jesse Sykes @sweethereaftermusic “Pretty Polly” from the new album Right Now! out this Friday, September 19 on @yeproc Listen wherever you stream your music - link in bio! . #TheThirdMind #PrettyPolly #folksong #darkfolk #victorkrummenacher #jessesykes #davealvin #michaeljerome #davidimmerglück #musichistory #murderballad #psychedelicamericana

“Though an abundance of legacy acts cozy up to nostalgia as they enter the later phases of their lives, others, like the crew of the Third Mind, grow more curious. Spurred by the idea of recording using the groove-based improvisational methods Miles Davis devised to create the electric-jazz milestone “Bitches Brew,” and furthered by A-list personnel who made the exploratory notion a reality, the Third Mind takes psychedelia, blues and mystical rock ‘n’ roll down a deep, twisty rabbit hole with no guarantee of emerging out another side. As for its pedigree? Ex-Blasters guitarist Dave Alvin, drummer Michael Jerome (Richard Thompson, John Cale) and bassist Victor Krummenacher (Camper Van Beethoven, Cracker) head up the quintet. 8 p.m. Oct. 10 at Garcia’s Chicago. “ — @chicagotribune Get your tickets for The Third Mind - October Tour Oct 3 Los Angeles, CA - @thetroubadour Oct 7 Columbus, OH - @nataliesgrandview (*low tickets) Oct 9 Davenport, IA - @raccoonmotel Oct 10 Chicago, IL - @garcias_chicago Oct 11 Milwaukee, WI - @shank_hall Oct 12 Grand Rapids, MI - The Stache at @sectionlive Oct 14 Ferndale, MI - @themagicbagmi Oct 15 Cleveland, OH - @beachlandcle Oct 17 Pawling, NY - @darylshouseclub Oct 18 Jersey City, NJ @whiteeaglehalljc Oct 19 Washington DC - @thehamiltonlivedc Oct 23 Denver, CO - @opheliasden Oct 24 Ft.
