Ren Lenhof Studio

The three members of Sleepersound.

Sleepersound

Milwaukee’s critically acclaimed Sleepersound wraps itself in layers of experimental prog, dream pop and post rock to create a gauzy sound that’s comparable to The Cure and Explosions in the Sky. The band’s haunting new album, My Own Dead Love, dropped March 14 and was recorded as a four-piece prior to the departure of multi-instrumentalist Kenny Buesing. Now, Sleepersound is carrying on as a trio and launching a brief six-date tour that also includes stops in four other states. This is gloomy music punctuated by shards of hope — the perfect soundtrack to our own apocalypse. Madison’s one-man indie-rock/dance band Drive-a-tron and local dream-pop duo Starbeam also will perform.

Drive-a-tron

https://drive-a-tron.bandcamp.com/

Drive-a-tron is an indie-rock/dance band mixing together heavy grooves, unexpected harmonies, pulsing keyboards, and poly- rhythmic lyrics as ingredients in a joyous musical burrito. Lightweight and easy to pack, Drive-a-tron is typically run by one person (Paul Vash - Madison, WI) who writes the songs, plays the instruments, makes the videos, and changes the oil.
