taste progressed Tegan and Sara, Death Cab for Cutie, Shout Out Louds and Coconut Records are among their favorite bands.

No strangers to the stage, Vic and Gab have been performing since they were fourteen in coffee shops, block parties and local festivals. The girls have recently found their way into the Milwaukee music scene in local venues and radio shows. Their biggest gig? Definitely, being featured on SKINS!

Ecstatic about what the future may bring, Vic and Gab anxiously await new experiences coming their way!

Vök is a dream-pop/indie-electro band from Iceland.
Vök was formed in January 2013 to enter an annual band contest in Iceland, 'Músíktilraunir' (Music Trials).The problem? They didn't actually have any songs. Yet within a few weeks they were at the contest performing their brand new tracks. In a twist of fate (and talent) won the competition.

Vök’s sound mixes wistful electronics and melodic vocals, distant saxophones and reverberating guitars. Think The xx’s hypnotism, The Knife’s sexual tension and Poliça’s playful overdubbing.

A longtime fixture on the Chicago music scene, the Lovehammers are an alternative rock band whose sound is best described as a combination of pop-punk with grunge influences. They have headlined their own International Tours as well as support bands/musicians such as Nickelback, INXS, Slash, Chevelle, KISSl, Cake, Theory of a Deadman, The Wallflowers, and, played SOLD OUT shows at the majority of Chicago’s music venues and have appeared LIVE on VH1, NBC, ABC, CBS, FOX, among others.

In preparation for their seventh album Set Fire, band members Marty Casey, Bob Kourelis, Dino Kourelis and Billy Sawilchik took a non-traditional approach to music making and built their own recording studio. Normally rushed and paying for studio time, the Lovehammers were able to write and record at their own pace allowing for more music to be created while songs happened organically. The finished material was given to mixer, Anthony Focx from Nashville (Aerosmith, Steven Tyler, Metallica, Sick Puppies, Motley Crue, etc.) for completion.


We don’t shirk from naysayers. We overcome them. We don’t listen to trends. We make them. We don’t cower at obstacles.

We burn a path.
