Psychic Stunts

To experience Sweden’s Psychic Stunts live is to experience a whole other state of being. The Psychic Stunts live show is really something else – a truly interactive experience and a party for your senses, where you cut loose and float away on melodies irresistible to the crowd sing-a-long, while your eyes take in the visual delight of the band dressed as bouncing karaoke balls. Lyrics are projected overhead via a retro OHP inviting the audience to partake in a favourite Swedish tradition – the crowd sing-a-long.

To experience Psychic Stunts live is to be hosted through a global journey including litany of tirades, poetic anecdotes, and short stories about love, life and whatever backed by an infectious beat. Drawing inspiration from their “real” jobs as “some kind of management consultants”, Psychic Stunts have created an unparalleled experience representing urban life in the 21st century. What the band describe as an “experience, instead of a concert” is a PowerPoint-presentation with a pop twist. You have to see it.

Psychic Stunts embrace all things digital as much as they embrace their audiences. As a salute to their army of fans, the band has made live sing-a-long recordings from a gig, mixed it into the track, which was then launched as a worldwide digital release from the stage direct to the Internet.

Lately, Psychic Stunts have been working on the imminent release of their latest album, the band’s second, scheduled for release in March/April 2013. The 2009 debut album ‘Panic in Motion’ features the smash hit “Speaker’s Block”, party anthem “Wind Up the Sound” and laid-back pop gem “Kiss Right”. In 2012, the band released the single “I Don’t Have Facebook,” – a musing on how much harder it is to find the one you are looking for if you aren’t on Facebook.

With lyrics that are both poetic and descriptive, the Psychic Stunts sound captures emotion, passion and life in a sensational and colourful blend that just makes you want to dance. Then laugh. Then cry. Then dance again. But most of all, it makes you want to sing.

To experience Psychic Stunts live is to step into the worlds of Joel Bergqvist and Anders Tjernblom who deliver an experience instead of a concert that you’ll tell your grandchildren about. Dedicated musicians to the core, both artists are also in other bands, Joel in The Bombhappies and Anders in Fulkultur.
