Cousins Ryan, Ian and Jamie Baca make up the trio Wake Up Lucid. Right off the bat, the one thing that stands out about this LA band is their heavy 60s influence. Singer-guitarist Ryan has put the weight of the band’s sound on the guitar. Their song “A Minor” off of their debut EP “Look Alive People” really sets the bar high for this up and coming rock band.

Being the huge Jimi Hendrix fan that I am, nothing is more impressive than a golden god. Wake Up Lucid may have a long journey ahead of them, but if they continue showing off their amazing guitar skills, surely someone (ahem, label) is bound to pay attention. Wake Up Lucid is keeping it real and for that they deserve to be our BeatCrave Fav today. Check them out below!
