Acid Tongue is an American garage band heavily influenced by classic soul, punk & psychedelic rock. Formed in a damp Seattle basement in 2015, the band immediately hit the road, extensively touring the US & Europe and refining their unique brand of rock & roll.

Founded by singer/songwriter Guy Keltner, the band also includes numerous touring & studio musicians scattered between Paris, New York, London, Mexico City, & Los Angeles, with a rotating roster that seems to grow larger by the day.

In 2015, Acid Tongue established their own label, Freakout Records, and in 2017 the band released their debut album, aptly titled BABIES. The album is a soulful, stoney, heartfelt approach to modern psychedelia. Their 2020 sophomore album, BULLIES, expanded upon the themes of their debut, cementing the band as the Pacific Northwest’s most unique garage-rock proprietors. For their third studio album, ARBORETUM, the band recruited veterans from the psychedelic rock scene during production, resulting in first-rate collaborations with artists such as Death Valley Girls, Naked Giants and Canadian singer Calvin Love.

Acid Tongue’s fourth full-length, Acid on the Dance Floor, released April 12th on Le Cèpe Records (Paris), showcases their now signature sound and a back-to-basics approach to rock music. Recorded in Venice Beach with Josh Landau (The Shrine, Stolen Nova) & Alex Arias (The Mowgli's, Meatloaf), the album incorporates elements of psychedelia, glam and post-punk. It is a loud, funky and chaotic acid trip that redefines “the Seattle sound”.
