ORPHEUS was chosen from a random, blindfolded, dictionary selection, and has created a group of talented musicians well beyond their years.

A group of 8 (eight) 16 & 17 year old musicians with a love for music. Their belief in themselves was kickstarted after winning the 2010 Battle of the Bands. They outplayed many bands with years of experience, and quickly created a name for themselves in their hometown.

Accolades include: Regional Finalist for Launchpad 2010, Oshkosh DARE Battle of the Band winner, and top 10 National Battle of the Band winners in the SchoolJam USA Battle of the Bands in January 2011. They were recently named "Best Young Band of the Fox Valley".

Performances have included Summerfest, Steelbridge Festival, Festival Foods Fireworks over the Fox, Outagamie County Fair, EAA Hops & Props, and many others.

SKA music is in their soul - creating a show that will make anyone move. With their non-stop "skanking", riveting vocals, incredible rhythm section, and a horn section like no other....ORPHEUS is a must-see for anyone young or old!
