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 and winning 7 San Diego music awards. 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 fourteen countries, and supported tours by like-minded acts like ROCKET FROM THE CRYPT, LITTLE BARRIE, and THE WOGGLES and have opened for the DAMNED, 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". “One of my favorite live bands ever!” proclaims Tim Mays, who has run the Casbah in San Diego for 30 years and has seen literally thousands of live bands come through his doors. “The Schizophonics bring the goods every time they play,” he enthuses.
The band is more than just an outstanding live act, they’re also committed to writing great, memorable songs. After releasing 2 singles and an EP over the last few years on Munster, Ugly Things, and Pig Baby Records, they put out their first full-length album in July 2017 titled Land Of The Living
on the label Sympathy For The Record Industry with famed record man Long Gone John. In January of 2019 they started work on their 2nd LP recruiting Dave Gardner (Hot Snakes, RFTC) mixing engineer Stephen Kaye ( JD McPherson, Mike Krol) and Pierre De Reeder (Rilo Kiley) to put their live, raw sound to tape. The album titled People in the Sky
has been released on October 31st, 2019 on Pig Baby Records. Followed by their new album Hoof It
released on September 2022.
A new album is announced for fall 2024!
The Schizophonics- hailed by Spotify as the "wildest live band in America" - wouldn't want it any other way.

TETE D’AFFICHE // THE SCHIZOPHONICS Spectaculaire sur scène, fantastique sur disque, le trio de haute énergie de San Diego était de passage à Paris.
Un concert des Californiens The Schizophonics sans le son, c’est déjà très impressionnant: l’intenable chanteur-guitariste Pat Beers pourrait faire derviche tourneur, médaillé olympique de saut en hauteur ou imitateur de volcan en éruption.Mais avec le son, c’est encore plus fort, très très fort: du rock’n’roll de compétition, avec une énergie soul et supersonique comme on n’en voit plus depuis le MC5 ou James Brown. Sans concessions, le meilleur groupe de rock’n’roll en Amérique aujourd’hui.
C’est vendredi, une faune riche en tatouages, bottines et franges Bettie Page est de sortie pour voir des groupes de rock comme on n’en fait plus tellement.
En clôture : les Lords Of Altamont font leur numéro de rock biker poussif. Avant cela, les Buttertones mélangent soul, new wave et punk mais semblent presque trop sophistiqués après la grande attraction de la soirée : The Schizophonics, trio de San Diego où une batteuse fantastique et un bassiste à étoile de sheriff épaulent un frontman possédé, Pat Beers, un hyperactif qui fait des cabrioles, harangue la foule et joue de la guitare à une main, mais n’oublie pas de jouer des morceaux de pur garage haute énergie.
Ceux qui trouvent que Jon Spencer s’embourgeoise un peu ces derniers temps savant désormais vers qui se tourner.
Préparez-vous à une décharge rock and rollienne sur CANAL+ !!
Tout droit venue de San Diego, The Schizophonics est un groupe explosif et physique sur scène... Pat maîtrise et martyrise sa 6 cordes comme personne, en le voyant, on pense directement à Iggy Pop mais surtout au MC5...
Show Explosif, on vous aura prévenus !!
