Drive-A-Tron w/ Creature Weather, & Vanity Plates * May 7, 2026

Drive-a-tron is an indie-rock/dance band mixing together heavy grooves, unexpected harmonies, pulsing keyboards, and poly-rhythmic lyrics as ingredients in a joyous musical burrito. Lightweight and easy to pack, Drive-a-tron is typically run by one person (Paul Vash – Madison, WI) who writes the songs, plays the instruments, makes the videos, and changes the oil. Dancing, sweating, and joy are the goals of Drive-a-tron, but a closer look at the song lyrics may surprise you with stories of complex characters and situations. The excitement of the music comes through on stage with Paul performing on different instruments, often with synced videos and friends, and encouraging audience members to join in. Everyone who attends a Drive-a-tron show is invited to be “in the band”. “Down-the-street Milwaukee neighbors” Tad Jameyfield and John Doyle, whose affinity for experimental pop became the common ground on which they built their Creature Weather project. Jameyfield’s affection for ’60s bands like The Zombies and The Buckinghams is all over their music. The weathered piano, echoey vocals and harmonies set a tone. – Radio Milwaukee- Vanity Plates – post-butt-rock for fans of Jeopardy but not the college tournament!!
