When it comes to suspending your brain somewhere between stoner oblivion and psychedelic bliss, JUJU has mojo. The trance-y rock is the new venture of singer-guitarist Phil Pirrone (Jeffertiti’s Nile, A Static Lullaby, Casket Salesman) and Incan Abraham drummer Andrew Clinco. Over the drummer’s thunderous rhythms, Pirrone loops guitar and bass, building an almost primordial swirl of tones. “G for a G” is from the duo’s forthcoming first EP, some of which will be on display Saturday when they play the Moon Block Party, a free, all-ages event (that Pirrone helps organize) in the Pomona Arts District.
