Psychic Equalizer is a progressive rock band founded by pianist and composer Hugo Selles. The band has gone through different formations, being the current one completed with guitarist Carlos Barragán, singer Saray Riaño and drummer Sergio Azcona.


The members classical training and professional experience in playing a myriad of genres results in an original and exciting sound combining virtuosity, harmonic richness and boldly creative arrangements. Psychic Equalizer's music has been described as a fusion between 70's and 80s progressive rock titans such as Pink Floyd, Renaissance, Camel or Marillion, with a more contemporary and metal sound with bands such as Dream Theater, Nightwish, Opeth and Symphony X as clear influences.
