The MQT-based band Skunk Fur will be performing their final show this Saturday, June 22 at the Because of Mandy benefit concert. They will be headlining the eight-band line up at the Wooden Nickel and will take the stage at 11 p.m. until bar close.
Originally forming in the summer of 2010, the band has four members: Nate Teates on guitar and back up vocals, Wade Buck on bass, Nick Hallwachs on lead vocals and RC Anderson on drums. Skunk Fur has made a name for themselves with high energy shows incorporating multiple genres into something they call resin-punk.
“We almost try to be unpopular,” Teates said with a laugh.“It's bottom-of-the-bowl punk rock with thrash elements, some ska and some straight up metal,” said Teates.
The band is on good terms and officially calling the stoppage of shows a hiatus. Buck will be attending graduate school at Eastern Michigan University for a Master of Fine Arts in blacksmithing,
a program unavailable in the MQT area.
