Through winding wormholes, interplanetary contemplations of change and recovery, heartbreak and heart-mend, Grooblen emerges from the San Francisco space-time continuum with their sophomore album, A Wormhole Is A Freeway To The Stars. Grooblen takes you on a turbulent and at-times ethereal spaceship ride through heavy rock hitter asteroids, wavy jazz-pop nebulas, and encounters with aliens of the psychedelic-cabaret kind, produced and mixed by The Complex SF and Jim Greer (Foster The People, Del the Funky Homosapien, Galactic, Angelo Moore).
