About Psychic Heart
Psychic Heart is a dreamgaze/indie post-punk project carving out a distinct space in the Tucson, Arizona underground music scene. Spearheaded by songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Chris Monzon, the band layers tight kinetic punk rhythms beneath a hazy wash of guitar textures to create a raw sound that balances dark, atmospheric moodiness with explosive noise. The music channels classic postpunk mainstays such as Sonic Youth, My Bloody Valentine, The Fall and the modern, heavy post-hardcore energy of bands like Title Fight and Nothing. Psychic Heart is Chris Monzon, Ricardo Garcia, Colin McIlrath, and Kenji Ono Lancaster.

Members of Psychic Heart will be participating in Tucson Rock Lottery: A Benefit for KXCI on September 5th on the Club Congress Plaza stage. At 9 am on Saturday, September 5th, twenty-five Tucson musicians will gather together to form brand-new bands at random by drawing names out of a hat. They will write and learn three original songs, learn one cover, and perform all in under 12 hours. The epic culmination of their collaboration will happen on the plaza stage from 6-10 pm in a celebration of all the ingenuity the Tucson music scene has to offer in a benefit for KXCI.
