BIO
Mystical Joyride is the genre fluid Psychedelic World Pop band, flying their spaceship between the spiritual and the ratchet, Formed by married couple Leah Van King and Joel Van Dijk, the band sought to explore Leah’s existential questions with the Wizardry of Joel’s production skills.
Leah the amazing songbird, born of the musical legacy of The Commodores, and Joel the low-key superproducer and multi-instrumentalist (for Aloe Blacc and others) put their sounds together to form this new identity. After their first EP Enter From The Inside, they added the sensational Bengali singer Arzeen Kamal to the band after having him feature on a few of their records and loving the results.
Their live set combines electronic music with live instrumentation, sometimes as a duo, and sometimes as an ensemble of Joyriders. Mystical Joyride is an experience of contemplation, meditation, and straight up shaking that ass. The band has been featured within the Ecstatic Dance community, played at such Festivals such as Lightning in Bottle, Worldfest, as well as being regulars at Soulplay and Love Long Beach, Hunnypot Live. Mystical joyride has also featured vocalists like superstar Aloe Blacc, and Ghanaian reggae/afrobeats artist Rocky Dawuni and australian rapper Maya Jupiter.
MJ Live in 2022
