— About Aunt Cynthia’s Cabin —
Aunt Cynthia’s Cabin is comprised of San Diego’s Brennan Justice (guitar, lead vocals), Anthony DeFreitas (bass, vocals) and Jeremy Luvaas (drums, percussion). Beginning as a duo, Justice and DeFreitas’ previous time in a surf rock ensemble saw the pair develop their signature Western tones with an excessive use of spring reverb, translating now to the ethereal, dusty sound of Psychedelic Desert Rock.
The band’s name is born from a fictional 1970s murder mystery novel dreamt up by the trio on a drunken night, capturing their embrace of “strange and heavy,” aptly fitting of the uncanny elements entwined in their music. Aunt Cynthia’s Cabin produce a neo-Psychedelic style that carries an eerie quality. The sonic atmosphere envelopes each listener with nostalgia. It is hauntingly cinematic.
The trio began as a self-recording band with a home-brew analog-meets-digital rig set up. The DIY approach was left behind in 2019 when the outfit ventured from their hometown of San Diego, CA to Austin, TX to record “Misty Woman” in a studio they felt would best fit the vibe of their new compositions. Working with producer Adrian Quesada (The Black Pumas, 7-time Grammy-nominee) at Electric Deluxe Recorders, the very sun-beaten landscape that surrounds the studio fed into the quality and mood of the recordings. Initially released by Nasoni Records in February of 2020, the enthralling textures and captivating character of Aunt Cynthia’s Cabin‘s “Misty Woman” returned in 2025 including the new track “Magic Touch“, on vinyl and CD via Black Throne Productions.
Aunt Cynthia’s Cabin sees the trio embark on their next chapter, leaning further into cinematic realms. Recording for this album was undertaken by the band themselves, moving out of the traditional studio set up into their own defined space, a converted barn belonging to drummer Jeremy Luvaas, a sense of freedom and creative development that can be heard across the track list. Aunt Cynthia’s Cabin once again join forces with Black Throne Productions for this release. “Aunt Cynthia’s Cabin” will be unveiled on December 18, 2026.
