In July 2025, Australian psychedelic rock band King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard—led by Stu Mackenzie and at the peak of their tour supporting albums like Flight b741 (2024)—opened their Athens residency with the first night at Ejekt Festival on Plateia Nerou. This show became the start of a three-day Greece stay, showcasing material from recent releases with their signature mix of garage rock, psychedelia, and kraut motors. Captured professionally, the performance caught them in hypnotic form: Amby Kenny-Smith and Cook Craig's guitar riffs backed Michael Cavanagh's drums, while Mackenzie's vocals added mad charm. Running through "Rattlesnake", "Shanghai", "The River", "Head On/Pill", and epic "Am I in Heaven?", where the crowd fully immersed. This gig—a bright residency opener—proved their mastery of live chaos and invention.
