Vision Video

About

Vision Video doesn't just make music; they soundtrack a personal reckoning with trauma and a broader societal unease. Led by Athens, Georgia firefighter and EMT Dusty Gannon, the band channels post-punk angst and 80s new wave sensibilities into a potent, cathartic sound. Imagine The Cure grappling with survivor's guilt, or Joy Division finding solace in a danceable beat – that's the sonic territory Vision Video occupies. Gannon, a veteran of the Iraq War, infuses his lyrics with unflinching honesty about PTSD and the weight of bearing witness to human suffering. Their debut album, "Inked in Red," released in 2021, marked a significant turning point, garnering critical acclaim for its raw emotionality and infectious melodies. Tracks like "Comfort in Grief" and "Organized Crime" resonated deeply with listeners, establishing the band as a voice for those grappling with mental health challenges and societal anxieties. Vision Video isn't afraid to confront darkness head-on, transforming personal struggles into anthems of resilience and hope. Recent projects include continued touring and a growing online presence, building on their reputation for intense live performances and a genuine connection with their audience. They are a band that reminds you it's okay not to be okay, and that finding solace in music and community is a powerful form of resistance.
