The Dead Johnnys w/ Compact Deluxe feat. Kayla Kush

Whether you’re looking for a dark catharsis or seeking joy and light through rock, the Red Rooster has you covered for…that day.

As noted about the Dead Johnnys in Isthmus: ‘“Anti-Facist, anti-violence, anti-racist, pro-creative” was the Clash’s motto. The British punk pioneers are served rowdy and semi-regular tributes by this four-piece from Madison. The Dead Johnnys will blend in a few songs from other punk bands but mostly channel the fury and passion of Joe Strummer and company.’

Developing past their groovy retro instrumentals, Compact Deluxe has taken their craft to new frontiers through the vocal potency of Kayla Kush, known for also bringing positive vibrations over the radio with skillfully flowing reggae selections.
