We take the music seriously, so you don't have to. Come see us because... Rock is what we do!
Mouse Brunner - Keys, Guitar and Vocals
Mouse began playing music when he was eight years old. Starting out playing drums, the same instrument his dad played, he eventually picked up the squeeze box, and finally progressed to keyboards and guitar. Mouse started gigging professionally when he was sixteen years old, finding himself playing in numerous wedding bands throughout the years. Because of his early influences, Jerry Lee Lewis and the Beatles, he was ultimately drawn to rock ‘n’ roll. He soon formed The Fender Benders, and then later Mouse & the Fat Cats. Now with Tangle Foot he is cranking out some timeless classic rock dance music. Mouse likes playing out and watching people enjoying themselves dancing, and hopes to see you out at some of the Tangle Foot shows.
Mike Slupski - Lead Guitar and Vocals
Mike grew up in a musical family and began taking acoustic guitar lessons at age 12. However after he heard the guitar solo from the Led Zeppelin recording (from his older brother’s record collection) of “Whole Lotta Love, Mike hounded his Dad to get him an electric guitar. His Dad finally relented and the electric guitar has been Mike’s main instrument ever since.
Mike has played in many bands during his 50 years (yes, 50!!!) as a musician. Most recently: Little Mike and the Movers, Past Curfew, Suzie and the Detonators, and Just Sayin’. While Mike loves performing for people, he is fond of saying that there are few things better on earth than being in a great band that is playing well.
Mike is a versatile player versed in many styles but enjoys playing energetic Rock music more than anything else. – which works out great because that is exactly what Tangle Foot specializes in!!
Mike has been a Guitar Instructor for 18 years and continues to teach guitar and owns Mike’s Music Studio in Plymouth.
Jerry "The Rock" Nawrocki - Drums and Vocals
Jerry started his love for Rock n Roll at a young age. Raised just outside of Detroit, he grew up listening to all the Motown groups. A big part of the music scene was Bob Seeger and Ted Nugent.
Jerry got his first drum kit at 10 and fell for AC/DC tunes. At 18 he found his way to Wisconsin where he had his drum kit stolen from a storage unit. After a brief time away from playing drums, a comeback was in order.
Danglin Fury and Limited Filth are the bands he played with before joining Tangle Foot.
Dave "Hermzy" Herrmann - Bass and Vocals
Dave’s been holding bands down (at the bottom of the musical scale that is) for more than a decade in the SE Wisconsin music scene playing various styles of music from oldies and classic country (Memphis Connection) to Classic Rock (Vinyl Road) to contemporary country (Wild Card) and Pop (Shut the Front Door).
Dave first picked up a bass while in college but soon put it away as his job and family became a priority. A self-taught musician, Dave started playing again in 2007 and has been playing ever since.
A huge Beatles fan, Dave’s largest musical influence is the melodic bass stylings of Paul McCartney.
