Halloween, we’re summoning a hauntingly good lineup of Steampunk’s finest minds and mysterious talents!
Join us at Wild Wild West Steampunk Convention for a weekend of thrills, chills, and spooky spectacles.

Marquis of Vaudeville

Announcing the illustrious return of CONCERTS to Wild Wild West Con 13 with the incredible Marquis of Vaudeville!
Amanda Palmer of The Dresden Dolls applauds the band with, “Ziggy meets Mark Bolan outside Max’s Kansas City. Makes me want to break out some sequined leggings and spit on the sidewalk. Spage-age modern-age glam nostalgia.”
With over a million video plays and 100k fans worldwide on social media, Marquis of Vaudeville have shared the stage with The Offspring, Death Cab for Cutie, Modest Mouse, Hozier, and AWOLNATION. Their theatrical Tim Burton-esque rock opera soundscape of angst-ridden anthems, devilishly beguiling ballads, and waltzes through a twisted Wonderland tug at the heartstrings.
You may have seen them at Dragon*Con, Wizard World Comic Con, The Anne Rice Vampire Ball, Endless Night Vampire Ball, or heard their melodies on the TV shows Dexter and Charmed.
