Meet Persephone—a Bay Area punk-rock girl-band that’s anything but shy—and welcome them to the Psyched! Records family. Formed in 2024, the lineup of Piper Burns (lead vocals), Lucy Scholten (bass), Liz Von martens (guitar), and Izzy Burns (drums) has been lighting up San Francisco and Oakland with combustible sets and fan-favorite cuts like Astronaut Soft Spot and Pacific Pearl. Hooks that bruise, choruses that bloom, and a stage presence that turns a room into a rally—Persephone shows are charged, sweaty, and gloriously alive.
Their first single with Psyched! Records, “Astronaut Soft Spot,” arriving Friday, October 10. Recorded and mixed by Jacob Gemmell at Psyched! Radio Studios it’s a jet-burst of melody and grit—equal parts sugar-rush and steel-toe—built for late-night drives, bedroom mirror sing-alongs, and the moment you decide to run straight toward the heat. The band is already hard at work on a debut album that channels their passion, grit, and freak-like energy into a record you won’t want to miss.
