Ozric Tentacles are an English band who have been crafting their own brand of instrumental space rock - woven through with electronica, dub and ambient - since the early 1980s. They built their following through self-released cassette tapes and marathon live sets on the British free festival circuit, most notably at Glastonbury. With seventeen studio albums and guitarist Ed Wynne as the constant creative force, they remain a cornerstone of the psychedelic underground more than four decades on.
Ozric Tentacles released the single 'Space Platform' as the first taste of the upcoming album Harmonic Mind.
The 17th studio album Harmonic Mind was announced for release on 18 September 2026 via Kscope; it is the first album with the full current touring band.
Ozric Tentacles played at festivals in Slovenia and Croatia in the summer of 2026, and are scheduled for an extensive British tour in the autumn with co-headlining shows together with The Orb.
In spring 2025, the band announced a British autumn tour to cities they had not visited for a long time, including York and Huddersfield.
The 16th studio album Lotus Unfolding was released on 20 October 2023 via Kscope.
