Hot Neon Magic

There's only one place to be in Vergennes this Saturday night. Open to the public, admission by donation.

Jello Biafra finally got his wish. We begin 2026 in a world without MTV on the airwaves, but the music it brought the world continues to resonate with a generation and beyond. I'll spare you the full eulogy and just say that this band exists partly because we love playing music from the MTV era, but mostly because YOU keep coming out and listening to it. THANK YOU for supporting local musicians and celebrating the spirit of 80s MTV with us. We've got 3 shows this winter, looking forward to seeing you in 2026!

The Magic lives! We recruited Jay Ekis to be our new axe man and we couldn't be happier. Jeff and Adam have played with Jay in the past, so we know he'll be a great fit. Here is a pic of Jeff and Jay playing a First Night gig about 20 years ago. We'll be ready to rock again in 2026!

Can YOU help keep the Magic alive? After 12 years and over 200 shows with us, our beloved guitar wizard, Lefty (aka John Whyte) is retiring from the band. Do you know a singing guitar player who loves the 80s? If you do, please send them our way. Tmrw will be our last show until we find the right person. Please share our CL ad on your socials and get the word out. Cu at the Legion tmrw night! https://vermont.craigslist.org/muc/d/burlington-80s-pop-and-new-wave-band/7888383082.html
