Heron Oblivion, which released its self-titled debut album in March, unites former members of loud psychedelic bands from the San Francisco Bay area (Comets On Fire, Sic Alps) with drummer and singer Meg Baird, who comes from an East Coast folk background. The supergroup emerged from long jam sessions that explored their shared love of the loud paired with an interest in Fairport Convention and Neil Young and Crazy Horse.

Hear the band perform onstage at World Cafe Live, as well as a conversation with Baird and guitarist Charlie Saufley about the health of San Francisco's psychedelic music scene.
