Originating as a college garage band in 2008, Untamed’s signature style has been fine tuned over years of playing with each other into a high energy rock show that anyone can appreciate!

Currently based out of Monroe, Wisconsin, Untamed is a 4 piece band:
Melissa Kieler (vocals/guitar)
Kurt Kieffer (vocals/guitar),
Scott Gruenenfelder (drums), and
Dan Thorp (bass)

Although original songwriting is our focus, we are able to blend a wide array of cover songs with our own music into performances fans and strangers alike can connect with. From the first riff to the final goodnight, Our main goal is to keep the audience at the heart of the show. Whether it's an acoustic jam session in a small town bar or a crowd of hundreds at some of the region’s premiere events, our philosophy is always the same; every person attending deserves to rock out and have a fun time!

Untamed has shared the stage/opened for well known bands such as Bobaflex and The Offspring. We have also played at some of the regions biggest festivals including Riverfest in LaCrosse and Bratfest in Madison!

Untamed - Southern Wisconsin's Band for the Masses!
