That Sydney gig by explosive trio The Schizophonics in March has moved to Friday night to accomodate a bigger crowd. I-94 Bar will co-present the Sydney gig at Marrickville Bowling Club on March 12. The Facebook event is here and tickets are here.
Supports in Sydney will be Fangin' Felines and Grinding Eyes.
The Schizophonics are inflicting their unique rock and roll show on audiences in Australia and New Zealand for a second time in 2020 as well as Japan.
The San Diego band - built on singer-guitarist Pat Beers and drummer wife Lety - have both a new album, "People in The Sky",and a new bass player in Kiwi Takumi McIntyre (formerly of the Cavemen) and made a huge impression on their 2019 tour of Australia and New Zealand.
Antipodean audiences had seldom (if at all) witnessed the likes of levitational front man Pat , whose sweaty splits , 720 degree spins (all before completion of the first song!) had local audiences gagging!! The Schizophonics combine the swagger of James Brown breakdancing to the Stooges, with the sonic attack of Hendrix and the MC5 in their hooky garage pop.
