As the founder and lead guitarist of Caught Naked, Mike pays homage to his influences (Eddie Van Halen, Michael Schenker and Zak Wilde) with his scorching guitar licks and rambunctious style. A wizard at his own craft, he has written the music for most of Caught Naked's originals and the lyrics for many of the group's heartfelt tunes, such as "Someday," "Hold You in the Night" and "Walk Away." Watch out for his killer rendition of Black Sabbath's "Paranoid" -- and, yes, you can touch him after the show.

And now... the hellraiser who needs no introduction. Mike Peshel has been doing damage with his guitar since the age of 15. A talented musician and songwriter, he has electrified audiences as lead guitarist for the R&B group Chambers and punk sensation The Cast. In addition to performing at the Holiday Star Theater, Park West and the college circuit, Mike has played all over Chicago's bar scene. In fact, his progressive band Industrial Dance Force was the last local act to play the Limelight before it became the dance club Excalibur. Mike's escapades have also taken him into the studio countless times, recording at CRC, Streeterville and Tracks- to name a few.
