About Valius

Valius is:

Mark Walus: Drums/vocals

Kunal Ganti: Guitar/vocals

Chris Deiter: Bass/vocals

Mike Zatezalo: Guitar/vocals

Matt Walus: Lead vocals

Come celebrate 18 great years in the Chicago music scene with Valius! 


That’s right. We’ve been in business a while and we aren’t going anywhere! Valius has played hundreds of shows for tens of thousands of fans all across Illinois- from small clubs and private parties to large festivals.

Featuring unmatched stage energy, unbelievable guitars, soaring vocals and a tight rhythm section, we like to consider our style a form of musical adventurism as we've curated a massive list of classic hits from the '60's through today. Rock, pop, country, grunge, rap and even two albums worth of original music to round it out. Why pick a lane when we can hang in all of them?

Valius has the range to dial any event up to 11! Expect more from live acts! Expect crowd participation. Expect to sing along! Expect to hear songs you wouldn’t expect! Expect to walk away saying “that was f-ing AWESOME!”. 

That’s Valius. We'll see you out there.

Valius is so happy to be a part of C.I.T.Y. of Support's We Love Our Caregivers tribute concert! This special night out is designed to recognize and celebrate the tireless caregivers who have children in therapy as part of C.I.T.Y. of Support's "We Love our C.I.T.Y." Month. With all their extra responsibilities such as medical appointments, therapy schedules, insurance/financial headaches, and school advocacy meetings, these caregivers often have little time for themselves and few opportunities to meet others in similar situations. There are limited spots available, so register today to come out for a great night of music, free appetizers, and appreciation for some pretty awesome people and a great organization! All proceeds to go C.I.T.Y. of Support. Register here:
