We are self-taught artists who create work inspired by healing, nature, travel, and personal experiences.

The Pretty Victims
(formerly known as G.E.L.D.)

The Pretty Victims are a Madison-based three piece who normally specialize in a blistering but melodic combo of metal, punk, and anything alternative, but for this gig they are turning the heat down and performing a set of (energetic) acoustic tunes. The Pretty Victims are: Zeyad El-Omari, guitar and vocals; Wilder Deitz, bass and vocals; and Joe Galligan, drums.

The Shrunken Heads
By now a Madison staple, the young members of the Shrunken Heads have played everything from the King Street Block Party to Celebrating Youth! at the Monona Terrace to the -Lowellapalooza- fundraiser for Lowell School. They are throwing away the electric guitars and picking up the acoustic ones in this opening slot for the Pretty Victims. The members of the Shrunken Heads are Mitch Deitz, Shannon Connor, Sam Galligan, and Brendan Manley.
