The Coo Coo Birds are a San Francisco-based psychedelic rock band formed in 2012. Their sound is a propulsive, hypnotic mixture of psychedelia, blues, traditional Persian music, and raw rock'n'roll. They have released three albums, one of which was produced in Memphis by Adam Hill (who recorded The White Stripes Get Behind Me Satan) during the group's 2013 tour to SXSW. The group resides together in San Francisco in an old Convent turned artists' collective, and their songs are featured in a Vice documentary focusing on their community.

The psychedelic quartet is composed of Jonny Cat on guitar, keys, and Middle Eastern instrumentation; Ryan Zweng on drums and percussion; Gray Tolhurst on bass, guitar, and drones; and Joshua Cook on guitar, bass, and keys. All four members contribute songwriting and lead vocals, and trade instruments onstage.

Most recently, in between dates on their European tour this summer, the group recorded a new album in Paris that is due out in early 2016.

Cuz the morning light it comes,
When the breath seeps out your lungs,
through the morning light we'll sleep.
