The alt punk band HRZN will be hitting San Diego's Kensington Club on May 31. Be sure to check out their merch table. Everything is handmade and locally sourced to help small businesses and produce a lower carbon footprint! From hand-dying t-shirts from their local shop to gemstone bracelets with meaning behind them (rose quartz = self love), HRZN advocates for mental health support in all areas of their craft. Their handmade sensory bracelets (ranging from free-$1) are designed after the method of Circle Breathing (inhale for four counts, hold for four counts, and exhale for four counts) reflected by the reminder of the four bead pattern (The Pearl is count one, followed by 2,3,4, then repeat)! This helps with anxiety, grounding from panic attacks, overstimulation or simply acts as something to fiddle with while reminding us to be kind to ourselves. (There is so much more, too.) The Allstar Lineup, Rickety Cliffs, and The Thieves About will also perform. 21+ Visit: www.hrznband.com/event-details/hrzn-in-san-diego-ca Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hrznbandco Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hrznband/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hrznband YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyMlQAq0UjM1899NtCOf9mw
