Super Jet Kinoko  + Ichi at Strange Brew
Headfirst Editor's Pick

"Missed the first wave of mushroom trance rock? Well, come ride the new wave – where Kikagaku Moyo-style space rock melds with the mischievous Spiral Tribe free party spirit and Ichi’s DIY instrument dada-pop, in a magic eye message beamed from a distant planet FFO: Ozric Tentacles, Henge, The Comet Is Coming, Moon Duo (on speed)."

Strange Brew presents
Super Jet Kinoko (Japan)
+ Ichi (Lost Map Records)
Thursday 18th June 2026
19:00 - 22:30

Bonkers new-wave mushroom trance from Osaka, Japan! Super Jet Kinoko are renowned for their bombastic live shows, fusing rock, trance and psychedelic influences - supported by Bristol’s DIY dada-pop genius ICHI, whose utterly wild sonic world is brought to life with his own handmade instruments.

Super Jet Kinoko are a unique, striking band that have become a party phenomenon in Osaka, Japan. Their energetic live shows twist the space around them, driven by seasoned performers and pure GOOD VIBES. Think rock meets human-powered trance, wild, brain-tinkering, impromptu and impossible to fully describe… ⁠

Hailing from Nagoya, Japan and based in Bristol, ICHI redefines the one-man band with a surreal mix of handmade instruments, toys and everyday objects. Blending playful chaos with a ritualistic energy, his performances are inventive and joyfully strange.⁠



Entry requirements: 14+, any under 18s accompanied by an adult
