Sioux City Boys Club

A project that combines the loves of music and art into a central theme and an ever-evolving concept
of contemporary music and culture. 80?s themed electro-pop dance music revolving around live shows and DJing sets.

Sioux City Boys Club are Michael Wilson, Luke Pepper & Arianne Schreiber and when not donning their Furious Fred guise (advent-garde electronica) they pay homage to amazingly catchy 80?s electro-pop music, Rock n Roll and House influenced guitar led dance music. With a delightfully varied set of major influences, rock'n'roll / disco/electronic / 80?s / dance, their sound is a joy to behold!!!
