VO5 is an American nu-disco and funk band from Madison, Wisconsin formed in 2005.




Career


In 2015 VO5 released the album Dance Originality. A music video for the single "Dance Originality" won the VOTD.TV award and was on rotation on MTV. VO5 has shared a stage with disco legends the Village People and KC and the Sunshine Band.
VO5 performed at the 2012 Scott Walker recall election mass protests alongside Michelle Shocked. Their song "Cheddar Revolution" was included in the Cheddar Revolution: Songs of Uprising CD compilation.
During the 2010 US Senate election, a video of VO5 performing the song "Wonder Woman" along with candidate Tammy Baldwin gained national attention after Wisconsin governor Tommy Thompson campaign employee Brian Nemoir questioned Baldwin's "heartland values" for dancing at a gay rights parade. Tommy Thompson was forced to apologize for his aides' "gay-baiting" in a TV ad and Baldwin went on to win the election.
