Remember a bit of their history to understand where their music come from 

hippies in the beginning

The hippie movement is a subculture began its development as a youth movement in the United States during the early 1960s and European social movements in the 19th and early 20th century such as Bohemians, and the influence of Eastern religion and spirituality.

People hang around The Psychedelic Shop, Haight-Ashbury district, San Francisco, 1966. Opened on Jan. 3, 1966, by brothers Ron and Jay Thelin and selling psychedelic books and posters, hippie clothing, and drug paraphernalia, this head shop quickly became a gathering place for the burgeoning counterculture. It closed in October 1967.
