The German Art Students have spent (many) years having a sense of humor about dozens of things: figure skating, old-timey bicycles, astronomy, vampires, typography, and so on. The Madison band takes a lot of care to craft bright and barbed power-pop songs. - Scott Gordon, ToneMadison.com
“New wave weirdoes” – The Onion
“GAS prove to be subversive and slapstick at the same time, providing post-punk, Mad magazine-esque music to the world” – Andy Moore, Isthmus
“While lyrically akin to acts like Devo or Jonathan Richman, The German Art Students’ sound is reminiscent of the pure power pop of the Buzzcocks and the heavy drive of X and The Undertones. Their live shows have always packed a wallop.” – Aaron Scholz, Dane101.com
“Much like the parade of New Wave bands that spread equal amounts of pop and snot across the late 70’s music scene, the local quartet hold nothing sacred. Civil War reenactments, self-righteous lefty artists, twee baroque-rock bands: They sneer at ‘em all.” – Tom Laskin, Isthmus
“Sporadically filling bars with fans of their high-energy punk rock sound since 1997.” Joel Patenaude, Madison Magazine“

Coming together over a mutual passion for writing and playing melodic, jangly rock music, Echo Rays is a new Madison band of four experienced tone seekers. The band focuses on creating original songs inspired by Tom Petty, Wilco, The Replacements, and many more. Echo Rays consist of Tony Sellers on drums, Rob Garza on bass and backing vocals, Danny Hicks on guitar, and Jeff Burkhart on guitar and vocals. Watch for an upcoming Echo Rays show!
"Madison is flush with four star musicians. Every decade or so lightning strikes and three or four veteran players create a side project that turns into something more. That's my hope with Echo Rays. You know these guys individually from their main band commitments. I can't wait to hear them together. Buckle up, Madison!" – Andy Moore, Isthmus
