Genre soup of darkwave, ambient, krautrock, post-rock, slowcore, low rock... or whatever I feel like. Abandon your labels. To borrow the wise words of En Vogue: free your mind and the rest will follow.

Vibralux, is 100% Certified, Sustainable, Organic, Free Range, Glam Rock.

Fun is the mantra allowing the band to provide their “Old School” organic kill or be killed Rock experience with face melting solos, shouts, chants and sometimes thrown objects.

Vibralux, is the Glam love child of Lawrence, KS Bohemian Polymath artist Mercury Mad who is currently incorporating all that he has learned since his days of Music Theater to his more recent nights of Rock n Roll debauchery in one full-bodied experience.

Neither the theatrics or musicality of the Vibralux show should come as any
surprise to those who know the history of their heady leader.

As a young singer/guitarist Mad, who played the Plant in "Little Shop of Horrors" in high school went on to study graphic design and Music Comp at KSU while playing guitar for productions such as "Hair" and "Bye Bye Birdie". 
Mad spent his/her off time teaching guitar for KSU's continuing education program and moonlighting in tenor roles such as Jack in Sondheim's "Into the Woods" and Henrik in "A Little Night Music".

Love of performance and the stage would lead to a transfer to The University of Kansas and choose a final major in Theatre & Film. Theatre would be the melting pot for Mad juggling various art forms. It was here he/she caught their musical tour bug playing guitar for the KU production of "School House Rock Live".

Mercury continued to develop an artistic repertoire working as make-up artist for a University production of Vaclav Havel's "Temptation", a job that required precision and creativity in the delicate art that would come to mean so much to an on-stage persona. When creating Vibralux in 2001, all these art forms would be combined: the acting, the singing, the make-up and not to mention the various bands played in during teen years. Vibralux became the work of Art, the "Dolls", with Mercury as the sarcastic Messianic figure audiences came to know and love.

In 2003 Vibralux was featured on the cover of Rock Kansas.Com and stole KC Pitch Weekly's award for Best Drag Show. In 2004 the group was nominated for The Pitch Best live Performance. 

In the spring of 2006. Merc accepted the Stonewall Society's New York Fresh Fruits award for best live performance on behalf of Vibralux. 

In it's 16 year duration of existence Vibralux opened for acts such as Black Pool Lights, Straylight run, Venus De Mars, The Genitorturers, Attrition, Shiny Toy Guns, HIM, and Electric Six. All be it known for their on stage antics Vibralux has been noted as one of Kansas City's most professional bands to work with.

While continuing with tours he/she backed Minneapolis group, APOX on Bass and Guitar for the U-35 DVD video tour. It is during these tours Mercury met and collaborated with current Vibralux drummer Ken Pillar and backing singer Nichole Hobbes.

Merc worked four tours as philanthropist, booker/promoter, spokes person,  and performing artist playing and singing solo acoustic shows as well as adding  alt Glam/Grunge electrics on the Apocalypse Theatre Revolution Circus Tour. 

Vibralux is currently working on three EPs to be released by or before December of 2019.

Singer-songwriter with alternative, folk, blues, alt country and Americana influences. Keeping it simple and lo-fi. One singer and one guitar.

Heading east.  In the middle, but still at the beginning.  Sharing my sketches and songs for you and for me.
