John The Savage + The Fatty Acids, Drugs Dragons at Cactus Club
Milwaukee’s John The Savage is a strange, carnivalesque, love-’em-or-hate-’em six-piece that became the city’s most talked-about group a few years back. It’s not hard to understand why: John The Savage conforms to the trend of “exotic” instrumentation while sounding unlike any other group in town, mainly because of Michael Skorcz’s eccentric vocals. Skorcz’s circus-barker growl fits the cinematic sweep of the music, which veers from New Orleans funeral marches to James Brown funk grooves. Tonight, John The Savage is joined by the tireless Fatty Acids and Drugs Dragons for its final show ever.
