Radioactive Squirrels perform their own unique versions of songs with an unconventional edge. Their influences include the Ramones, Violent Femmes, The Doors, U2, Elvis Presley, Queen, Rolling Stones and everything else out there that remains timeless and still rocks.
Jon Hemmer of WKRS Radio in Waukegan, IL said, "I promise if you go see these guys live, it's a show you will not see any place else. These guys fill a void that other bands can't".
