According to the press release:
“Founded in 2008 as Austin Psych Fest by members of The Black Angels and friends, the independent event sparked a movement inspiring the creation of similar events across the globe. Austin Psych Fest was renamed Levitation in honor of Austin’s psychedelic rock pioneers The 13th Floor Elevators, who reunited and performed at Levitation 2015 for the band’s 50th anniversary. The event has stayed true to its original mission—to be a hub for the psych rock scene—while expanding into the worlds of metal, electronic music, punk, and all manner of independent and underground music, with a simple mission.
Co-founder/director Rob Fitzpatrick talks about the mission:
“Through the Black Angels music, and the opportunity that opened to start our own festival, we’ve been able to host a global community of artists and music fans. Our mission is to be a platform where the music and art they love can thrive. It’s a simple idea—We’re here to give the people what they want—a place to see their favorite bands and discover new music. The people who support indie music and art—This is their festival, we’re here to make it as great as we can.”
