Additional Info
Vision Video is a post-punk goth rock band from Athens, Georgia that injects modern malaise into classic sounds of the late 70's and 80's.
The band pays homage to classics like the Chameleons and The Cure, while also bringing a refreshing modern element to the genre.
Thematically their music explores the effects of trauma on the human psyche and finding stability and agency in an insane world. Having served in Afghanistan with the army and as a firefighter in the civilian world, lead singer and guitarist Dusty Gannon is no stranger to the darker proclivities of humanity and death itself. "I wanted to write music that helped people remember that it's okay to not be okay, but that also doesn't shy away from taking a stern look at the darker aspects of our flawed human existence." says Gannon.
The band's first two records were met with much critical praise, such as that from Pitchfork stating they create "dreamy tune tailor-made for the sort of wallflower who sprints to the dancefloor the instant the DJ drops “Age of Consent” or “Primary” at Goth Night"
Their debut LP "Inked in Red" and second LP "Haunted Hours", were recorded and mixed by Tom Ashton of The March Violets at his Sub Von Studios in Athens, Georgia.
Vision Video will soon record their next LP "Modern Horror" at Maze Studios in Atlanta headed by Grammy award winning producer Ben Allen.
Note: Church of Hive dance party to follow. Admission included.

The band's first two records were met with critical praise, such as from Pitchfork stating they create "dreamy tune tailor made for the sort of wallflower who sprints to the dancefloor the instant the DJ drops “Age of Consent” or “Primary” at Goth Night". Dusty was also featured on the cover of Fangoria Magazine in October 2023, which featured a five page editorial feature on the band. Vision Video has been growing exponentially on social media since it's beginning. Dusty's character videos featuring "Goth Dad" have won the hearts of hundreds of thousands of followers, while seemlessly promoting their music and touring schedule. The band has completed 8 major tours to date, including the US, the UK and Europe. They show continuous growth of attendance, often selling out venues in the 300-500 capacity range.
Their debut LP "Inked in Red" and second LP "Haunted Hours", were both recorded and mixed by Tom Ashton of The March Violets at Sub Von Studios in Athens, Georgia.
