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.

Born from the shadows of the pandemic, Dutch Experts is the creative alter ego of Brattleboro, Vermont-based singer/songwriter Hannah Hoffman. Hoffman channeled her isolation and inner turmoil into a sonic catharsis, experimenting with layered synths and electronic rhythms crafted in GarageBand, birthing a soundscape both equally haunting and danceable. Inspired by goth icons like The Cure, ethereal voices such as Kate Bush and Cocteau Twins, and contemporary darkwave, indie rock, pop and post punk acts, her music fuses 80s retro‑synth textures with modern production. Her debut EP, 'Bound by This' received critical praise for its cinematic, emotionally intense sound: A&R factory calling it, “one of the most cinematic soundscapes possible in our lifetime". Currently in the process of recording her first full-length album, Hoffman continues to expand her sonic horizons, establishing Dutch Experts as a compelling voice in the contemporary darkwave/synth-pop revival.
