About

Sendelica were a psychedelic rock trio from West Wales composed of core members Pete Bingham (guitars and electronics) until his untimely passing in 2026, Glenda Pescado (bass guitar) and Jack Jackson (drums). The band have regularly collaborated with many musicians, noticeably Lee Relfe (saxophone) and Colin Consterdine (keyboards/production) as well as artists, film makers and performance artists and, although primarily an instrumental group, with a number of vocalists as well.

Sendelica conspicuously wore their influences on their sleeves and their music has been described as blending "the hypnotic pulse of Can, the impressionistic atmospherics of Pink Floyd, the motorized proto-punk of Neu, the space patrolling guitar pyrotechnics of Jimi Hendrix and the otherworldly ambiences of The Orb." They are also known for drawing inspiration from the local landscapes of Cardigan Bay and the Preseli Mountains and the rich, ancient heritage of the region.
The group’s first EP, TheOwlsHaveEyes, was released in July 2006 on their own FRG Records, with additional vocals by Chris Gibbs and keyboards by Roger Morgan. Over the following years they have prolifically released CD, vinyl and, more recently, cassette albums on various record labels.
As well as their many studio releases the band also toured regularly and have produced several live albums.
