SHAPELESS SYMMETRY

Shapeless Symmetry is a Madison-based conglomeration of all things epic and rocking that will take you to the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. Influenced by progressive bands such as Porcupine Tree, Muse, and Rush, Shapeless Symmetry is a three-piece band that fills any venue with complex beats, grooving basslines, driving rhythms, dreamlike and story-telling lyrics, and screaming lead guitars. The line-up consists of Mehran Mohammadian on drums and backup vocals, Mike Dietzler on lead and bass guitar, and Max Salick on rhythm guitar, keyboard, and lead vocals.

☆ Opening act(s): Diva (1st), Shapeless Symmetry (2nd), Venice Gas House Trolley (3rd), Mittensmooch (4th)

Venice Gas House Trolley is a four-piece cerebral groove. Based out of Madison, WI, the band initially hearkens back to the times when hipsters and cool-cats would chill out digging ecstatic poets and musicians and then explodes through the present and into the future with vocal effects, dual basses, and twisting rhythms. The group’s sound and content encompasses groovy funk, aggressive jam, high and lonesome country, avant-garde jazz and ambient chill. The group features the words and voice of Adam Gregory Pergament, a finalist for the 2009 MNSWA “Urban Griot” International/National Performer of the Year, Tim Peeters, a Madison Area Music Award winner, Kevin Arthur Knapp, a graduate from The University of Wisconsin's Music Composition Program, and Josh Pultorak on drums.
