╠╣ April 22 w/ and

Working hard to get some new songs ready for these! Hey, are those new earrings? They look GREAT! Wow, I almost wish I had a pierced anything just so I could wear earrings like those. Never too late, I guess.

So yeah, see you at the show?

We're stunned and excited to be nominated for "original band" in the 2026 WAMI Awards! If you are a voting type, voting is open...(wait for it...) ...NOW:

Voting is free, but is a volunteer organization that does great work all around this colorful state, and I'm sure they wouldn't turn down a donation or shout out.

I am a LIVING ENERGY CRYSTAL to be included in Tone Madison's "Favorite Records of 2025". It took years to make EP2: Crowds and it means a lot that people take the time to listen. Not laying back of course, always hustlin' towards the future, but feeling the 🫀

Hey, I know there is not enough time to listen to every new thing that gets released, but there is a metric ton of local music around here and you should click the link (in the comments / bio) to read about and listen to some true talents. Special thanks to for the thoughtful words and for all they do to highlight our fair city.

I'm sitting in my basement, wearing my lovely new scarf, editing 215 photos of the WORLD'S MOST BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE for our latest music video "Hot Coals Walking". We are so close to reaching our goal of 281! This project has been going on since the summer, and I'd love to put this thing out into the world before the end of winter. If you and all your friends want to be a part of it, all you have to do is hold a lyric to the song in front of my green screen. You don't even have to smile (just like me, apparently).

Send a message and I'll give you the deets. Takes like 2 minutes and it would be great to include you.

And since I'm posting anyway, I want to say that even though 2025 was rough in a lot of ways, it was the most satisfying Drive-a-tron year yet. We released the most music, played the most shows to the most people, and made the most friends. I'm so grateful for all of you and for this adventure. （￣︶￣）↗　

EP2: Crowds was released one month ago and we were not prepared for the love-explosion it created. It has been a helluva month - folks including our songs on playlists, on the radio, basement shows, unexpected HUGE shows, strangers becoming friends...I mean, WOW. The head spins right round and we're so, so happy.
🧠🫀🫁
But Drive-a-tron is still very much a growing thing and if you want to support, we'd really appreciate it. For example, you can grab a shirt or this EP digitally or on transparent red vinyl (link in bio). Oh and this Friday is Bandcamp Friday, which means more money goes to the artist!

If spending $$ isn't your thing, we've got options:
♦ Follow us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/-a-tron
♦ BE IN OUR NEXT MUSIC VIDEO - super easy to do, just DM me and I'll give you the specifics. We've already got 200 people joined up!
♦ Add any of our songs to your playlist so that others can join the D-A-T army (cult?).

Thank YOU for being here. Also, a quick shout to Taylor Leigh for the wonderful 📸 work they did when we played Majestic Madison on 9/14. That was a truly insane show and my ears are still ringing.

🌅 Tomorrow, 9/14
Honored to be lighting it up in support of at - guaranteed to be the 30 minutes of your life.

Get there early and you can be part of our upcoming music video...if you're into it...📸

Big show announcement 🏜️
if you were planning on seeing I Dont Know How but They Found Me this Sunday at Majestic Madison you’ll have to suffer through 30 minutes of Drive-a-tron first.
Current mood = ⚡️⚡️⚡️

👓Our EP2: Crowds was released to the world and we are a glowing, proud parent. The feedback is so generous. THANK YOU for listening! This journey is all about, connecting with new people through the invisible magic of music and isn't it a wonderful mystery? Thanks for being a part of it.

A special call out to two Madison institutions who took the time to post thoughtful reviews -> Steven Spoerl with Tone Madison (who do an amazing job with local Madison music, arts, and news...you should be reading all of their stuff, seriously) and Aaron Grych who recently started up Madison Music Radar on IG. In fact, Tone Madison gives a shout out to all the hard work Aaron is doing. If you're into the Madison music scene, you need to follow.

And a reminder that THIS FRIDAY is a "Bandcamp" Friday, which means if you purchase music or merch through bandcamp on 8/5 they will waive their usual % cut and give that money to the artist instead. How unusual in the 21st century! Drive-a-tron has new shirt choices and the prettiest red transparent vinyl. Links through our site at: www.drive-a-tronmusic.com
