Featuring an all-star lineup of Madison-area hard rock bands, Tazzbash honors the memory of Shannon Reed (aka Tazz), who died of an accidental overdose in 2019. His family made the decision for Reed to become an organ and tissue donor, and Tazzbash is a fundraiser for the UW Organ and Tissue Donor Education Program. Along with supporting a good cause, it's hard to go wrong with the slate of bands: Cold Black River, Droids Attack, Kill Jr and the Night Rods, Motherhive, One Bullet Left, Seven Seasons Deep, Skintones and Y-LAB.
media release: On July 14th 2019, Shannon K. Reed (Tazz) passed away from an accidental drug overdose. We learned that he had the ability to change the lives of others through organ and tissue donation. Our family made the decision to donate his organs and tissues. Within days, his liver had saved a life, what a gift!
To honor Tazz’s life, with the help of friends, family, and the southern Wisconsin rock community, we’ve established Tazzbash: an annual charity concert that raises funds for and grows awareness about the University of Wisconsin Organ and Tissue Donor Education Program. With 100% of proceeds going to support this program, we invite you to help us save lives while celebrating Tazz! We also urge you to sign up to be an organ donor. You can’t take them with you, but you can give the gift of life!
