Feral Vida — an I.V. classic — slayed. Their Strokes-inspired sound was almost nostalgic, the vocals raspy and affecting. Their beachy rock vibe appealed to the audience. The crowd never stopped dancing during the performance, grooving to the music until the set ended. The band mates seemed to hold real love for each other and that translated into a kickass performance. After the show, lead singer and fourth-year Max Schultz, said that “the band members were sticking around I.V. after graduation” to continue making music, so stay tuned. - Daily Nexus
Students migrated from the beer garden to the crowd in front of the stage as the first band, Feral Vida, took the stage. Their friendly smiles were met with shouts of “Feral Vida!” from the growing mass of people. The band kept the cheers going with an upbeat tempo and Max Schultz’s loud, raspy vocals that filled the room. Both guitarists demonstrated their dexterity during their cover of Gnarls Barkley’s “Crazy” with long guitar riffs and drawn-out high notes. Feral Vida got the crowd jumping and ready for the rest of the night.
Kaitlyn Haberlin, smiling and wide-eyed, remarked, “The first two acts were really cool. I’m surprised at the skill and ability they have as artists. They’re super awesome and fun and they get the crowd excited.” - Daily Nexus

Bio
Born from the slummy paradise of Isla Vista, California, Feral Vida is known for it’s “feel-good” rock vibe, where catchy hooks, energetic riffs and insightful lyrics bring home perspectives of questioning the status quo with regards to values and common outlooks on life. The music blends a unique mix of memorable melodies and a high-energy spirit that results in very relatable songs. We experiment with changes in keys and tempo, where bridges, verses and choruses juxtapose each other, creating a full and dynamic sound.
