The Schizophonics

Bio

Over the last few years, THE SCHIZOPHONICS have built up a  formidable reputation around the world as an explosive live  act. Tapping into the same unstoppable combination of rock ‘n’  roll energy and showmanship that fueled THE MC5 in the  heyday of the Grande Ballroom, their wild live show is heavily  influenced by artists like JAMES BROWN, IGGY POP, JIMI  HENDRIX, LITTLE RICHARD, and THE SONICS. Singer/guitarist Pat  Beers and drummer Lety Beers formed the band in San Diego in  2009 and have worked tirelessly since then, playing hundreds  of shows around the globe. In 2013 they were recruited as the  backing/opening band for EL VEZ, which helped the band make  a name for itself in Europe. Since then, they’ve played in  numerous countries, and supported tours by like-minded acts  like ROCKET FROM THE CRYPT, LITTLE BARRIE, THE WOGGLES  and have opened for the DAMNED, DEVO, HIVES and CAGE THE  ELEPHANT. Shindig magazine described their live show “Like  watching some insane hybrid of WAYNE KRAMER, JAMES  BROWN, and the Tazmanian Devil”.
