Inspired minds from the Fox Valley have put their heads together to bring Northeast Wisconsin Music & Mayhem, at the Algoma Club in downtown Oshkosh.
The Algoma Club, located at 103 Algoma Blvd., above the Water City Grill, will host this celebration of creativity, featuring artists throughout the Paper Valley. On April 5th, in conjunction with the Oshkosh Gallery Walk, some of the best fashion designers, musicians, visual artists, and performance artists from the Valley will come together to share their creativity and raise money for the Winnebago Peace & Justice Center.
The event is FREE and open to the public from 4pm – 7:30pm and $7 after 7:30pm. The artists market kicks off at 4pm, featuring the best of NE Wisconsin’s ceramics, glasswork, photography, painting, sculpture, drawing, hand-made crafts, and more. Any artists interested in showing and selling their work can send an email and 2 photo samples or website link to: ryanpmurphy1@yahoo.com. The event offers a limited number of spaces for art vendors, but there are currently openings available.
The fashion show will take center-stage at 8:30pm featuring the works of local fashion designers highlighting SaraDae Designs, PROGRESS Label clothing, and others. The Fashion show will be directed by the gems from Bohéme Productions, the organizers of the über-creative, annual Carnivalé masquerade Ball in Oshkosh.
A variety of great musicians from NE Wisconsin will donate their worldly talents to the benefit show. Fond du Lac resident, acoustic indie music-extraordinaire Pat Zyduck, Powerpop rock stud Jon Mayer, and singer/songwriter the California Kid, Tuna Wax, DJ KuRTeZ, National Touring Artist Jon Crocker, Colonel Angus, Tim Schweiger & the Middle Men, and the Oshkosh Rhythm Ensemble will all donate their multitude of music talents. Green Lake musical artist, the California Kid will blend reggae rock and instrumental surf-music with skilled guitar riffs and inspired lyrics. The multi-faceted Kurt Stein busts out his hip-hop persona DJ KuRTeZ to spin some records and mc the evening show. California Touring artist Jon Crocker will bring his unique folk/punk/americana blend to the stage. Colonel Angus' smooth grooves will turn the evening up a notch and Tim Schweiger & the Middle Men bring their rockin indie powerpop blues tunes to headline the evening show. The Oshkosh Rhythm Ensemble hand-drum brigade that never misses an event and never ceases to amaze will provide Afro-Cuban rhythms to blaze your soul. Located at 803 Waugoo the Oshkosh Rhythm Institute holds community drum circles every Wednesday from 7pm-9pm and is led by drum guru Robin Cardell. The fashion show beats will be dropped by the experienced dj’s of Tuna Wax with a special feature breakdown by RF Butter.
Music & Mayhem will also include live performance art creation by local painters, belly dancing by Appleton troupe Tribal Element, fire dancing by local fire dancers, and other local progressive performance groups.
The evening fashion show will showcase the 2008 apparel designs of PROGRESS Label clothing. The politically-themed, progressive graphic shirt line began on no-interest credit cards from a basement in the ‘Birthplace of the Republican Party’ and now is run from on Oshkosh apartment and warehouse. PROGRESS Label is a nice change of pace from the logo-heavy apparel that has overtaken our malls. Featuring issue-focused, politically accurate representations of our global world, PROGRESS Label is printed with eco-responsible inks on sweat-shop free shirts that are made in America.
PROGRESS Label clothing retail store is online at www.progressmedia.org. and is available in a small variety of retail stores including Streets of Fire in downtown Oshkosh. PROGRESS is best known among young adults in Madison, Milwaukee, and for its presence at various progressive festivals throughout the Midwest. In recent years PROGRESS has helped ad a progressive political style to global musicians including: the John Butler Trio, Michael Franti, Pneuma Trio, Incubus, Dark Star Orchestra, Jack Johnson, Vince Herman and the Great American Taxi, Sly Joe, members of the Matt Costa Band, the Charlie Hunter Trio, Crucial Reggae, and many others.
PROGRESS Label also designs custom apparel graphics and manages production for other private apparel labels, bands, non-profit organizations and progressive businesses.

The Winnebago Peace & Justice Center is throwing another party for the whole community to enjoy. Past event organization includes: Oshkosh Earthdance 2004, 2005, Oshkosh Family Reunion, 2006, Feet of the Earth Jam, 2005, and work with Bohéme Productions events. The Winnebago Peace & Justice Center’s mission is to promote a just peaceful and sustainable society through education advocacy and community organization, and we like to have fun along the way.
Bohème Productions, the master-minds of the annual Carnivalé masquerade party currently hail from Oshkosh. As Bohéme describes themselves, “hypothetically and hysterically born from the sweat of mad scientists and the fingernail clippings of swan-winged fae, or, more specifically, the brainshowers of four cockeyed women over pizza and plenty of wine.” According to these mad women, Bohéme Productions is comprised of Event Organizers, Avant Garde Fashion Show Directors, Stage Managers, Performance Artists, Set Designers, actors/actresses, Photographers, Artists, Musicians, Madpeople, and excellent dancers. | | Heroes | Martin Luther King, Mohatma Gandhi, Mother Theresa and so many more. |
