  • A Shelby Floyd-designed flyer for Tone Madison's 10-year anniversary party. Top right of the image reads "12.06.24 Gamma Ray Bar" with "10 years of independent culture and politics reporting" underneath. Top left of the image is Tone Madison's logo. Beneath those lines of text are the names of the event performers, which are presented in three lines of text. From left to right, in descending order: carisa, Evan Woodward, DJ Mu, Avoidancepolicy, Holly and the Nice Lions, Cult of Lip. A big number 10 with a birthday hat rests atop a birthday cake with 10 lit candles in the flyer's main illustration. The number 10 is in the same design as the Tone logo. The birthday hat is on fire. A QR code with underlining text that reads "$20 advance, $25 door," and a circle that says "Doors 6 PM," surround the main image. The bottom lines of text read "DJs 6:30, Bands 7, sponsored by union cab-cop." The Union Cab logo appears near the bottom right hand corner. Maroon confetti flecks are scattered through the image's entirety, which is set against a grayish backdrop.

  • A table display of Tone Madison's first official print zine. A blue hue permeates through an image of a table full of print zines that show the Tone Madison logo and a poster-esque bordered illustration that reads "10 years of Tone Madison." The zine just right of center is propped and standing, in sharp focus, while a sea of the same zine surround it, just out of focus.

Please note: For now, this is a listing of events that Tone Madison is hosting—including our quarterly-ish Office Hours meetups and occasional shows and workshops. We do not currently produce a listing of events around town, though we would like to in the future. But we do still preview shows, screenings, and other events around town in our stories.

If you are looking for a good local events calendar, we strongly recommend visiting our friends at Madison Minutes.
