The band Jonathon Millionaire.
Jonathon Millionaire
Dubbed the “Tax Evasion Fraudtacular,” this bill wins for most entertaining marketing hook of the month. It helps that it's also a good lineup, featuring a pair of intriguing Madison projects that reflect past sounds in new ways. The off-kilter approach of Educational Davis is what you wish most new wave bands in the '80s sounded like (but didn't). Jonathon Millionaire deconstructed nostalgia by using grunge era sonics on the January EP Team Building Exercise (watch for a full-length this summer). They are joined by Running Man, a group drawn from several Rock Island, Illinois, bands and fronted by longtime Dead Kennedys singer Skip Greer; their self-titled debut tape is a set of invigorating straight-ahead garage rock.
