Missouri-based alternative metal band, Made in Waves was founded by original guitarist Bryan Kay in the fall of 2004 originally under the name Ghost In The Machine (GITM). During the band’s formative years they climbed rapidly up the local ranks and played a majority of high profile stages and venues in Mid-Missouri as they developed their own unique sound and emotionally-charged hard rock show.

After releasing their 2005 self-titled EP, Sabian endorsed drummer Chris Loeffler was added to the line-up whose recently autographed drumsticks have been added to the Guiness World Book Peter Lavinger collection. Bassist Jonathan Hagood and vocalist Evan Thomas, both members of St. Louis based band, Key to My Spaceship, joined in 2011. Their arrival marked a re-inventing of the band’s sound and a push to commercialize to a broader fan base.

The new line up hit the ground running, opening for national acts, performing across the Midwest, and even winning 105.7 The Point’s Battle for Pointfest in May of 2012, which gave them the opportunity to open for Incubus, Chevelle, Cypress Hill, and P.O.D.

In November of 2012 the band released the four song EP “Earth Island” featuring songs Deep Blue Dream, Overload, Rigamarole, and Earth Island selling out of their first pressing. Throughout 2013 the band performed regional shows sharing the stage with The Deftones, Young Guns, 10 Years, Isaac James, the Australian band Ragdoll as well as tours with Dirtbag/Warner recording artists 9 Left Dead and Warped Tour performing artists The Hollywood Kills. In late 2013, Evan Thomas guest appeared on Full Devil Jacket’s new album Valley of Bones recording supportive vocal harmonies with Josh Brown on the song Paper Crown, in which Zach Myers of Shinedown also guest appeared playing lead guitar. The album will be released on a label to be announced in 2015.

In January 2014 the band officially changed their name to Made in Waves and launched the single Overload to US & Canadian radio stations, while regionally touring with Full Devil Jacket, Saving Abel, and others. Overload won consecutive cages matches on stations KBAT in Midland/Odessa TX, KTRX in Southern Oklahoma, and WOTT in Watertown NY. Throughout the year Made in Waves was featured in Stencil Magazine (UK), The Rock Pit (Australia), and In The Now Magazine (Midwest US). They have appeared on The Listening Room on KGRR Dubuque, IA, The Jim Santora Rock Show Podcast where they have been reigning champions of the Triple Threat Match, The Big Dumb Fun Show, The Q Sound Check in Vancouver, British Columbia, and Buzz Junior in West Palm Beach, FL.

In the Summer of 2014 Made in Waves released their second single Abussos onto select radio stations and will be releasing a debut crowd funded full length self-titled album this Fall. The upcoming album was recorded at Covenant Studios in Kansas City produced by Josh Barber (Norma Jean, War of Ages, and Everything in Slow Motion) and mixed by J. Hall in Nashville TN. It will include nine songs total including five new songs with the rerelease of four songs from the 2012 “Earth Island” EP.

Made in Waves continues to put on high energy shows performing in front of thousands. Now regarded as one of the best modern rock bands of the year they will soon be coming to a city near you.

From Jefferson City Missouri four musicians came together to form what is now known as 4 Skeevy Dudes. With an exciting mix of Punk and Ska, 4 Skeevy Dudes have started making their mark on the music scene.

The lead singer-Trinity, also known as T to his friends, fronts this collection of talented artists. The energy and enthusiasm he brings to the stage is infectious as the bare footed front man pours sweat giving all that he has in every song to ensure that the crowd feels the music like intended.

Guitarist-Joe with his old school punk thrasher drives the music. He rocks on his low riding guitar slamming the strings with every down stroke, producing a sound that any punk fan would love.

Bassist-Chad, beats on his ax with ferocity, and was known to play a show with nothing but his bass and naked glory. “I never felt like an actual bass player until this band”.

Drummer-Chris pours his heart and sole into every show. Numerous times the drum set is vacated for a quick exhaustion vomit outback and then back on the drums…not missing a beat.

Madora is a two piece rock band from Central MO- made up of James Webb (guitar/vocals) and Erin Cain (drums/percussion). James will be performing his solo/acoustic show tonight! Madora is quickly on their way to establishing themselves as a viable force in the rock scene of Mid-MO. With thier roots deeply imbedded into early 90’s alternative rock, hard rock, punk, roots blues and southern rock, they surely have a little something for everybody. Their ultimate goal is to take their music national and reach as many people as possible with their music. Madora wants every single person that comes to a venue to watch them wanting more.
