Perth psychedelic act Mayatrix & The Psychics have delivered their sensual new single, Mortal & Divine today, Friday, October 13
Formerly known as Moana, the birth name and driving force of vocalist, Moana Mayatrix, who was once described by Triple J’s Gemma Pike as one of Australia’s fiercest front women, Mayatrix & The Psychics are a spellbinding, cosmic force of nature.
Mayatrix & The Psychics conjure the raw heft of rock, infusing it with a psychedelic elixir that is 2-parts surreal and 3-parts big-time sensuality. On stage, they come-on like a jolt to your cerebral cortex from a fever dream, dazzling crowds with their electrifying and theatrical stagecraft.
Since the group’s inception in 2013, countless words have been written about the avant garde art rock outfit, all edging around the idea that there is something otherworldly, verging on genuinely dangerous, about this act. Combining the shamanic stream-of-consciousness poetry of peak- era Patti Smith with psychedelic melodies, heavy guitar licks, and propulsive rhythms, they don’t so much craft songs as pagan prayers set to the heartbeat of the world
This has earned them a devoted fan base across Australia and around the world, resulting in key support slots for the likes of Venom Inc., Ocean Alley, and Abbe May.
On the new single, the band say that it is a ‘Heavy-psych head banger with a galactic groove, spellbound betwixt manic alien war anthem and mystical divine essence…’
