The quartet have determined to create a performance-oriented project, consisting of three different musical presentations. Each of these offers a live show that is both visually and sonically stimulating. The collective name for all three shows is The Donkey Show.
Led by Treviño's animated and charismatic vocal performance, each show presented by The Donkey Show is loud, energetic, and thoroughly intriguing. The group's original act, called "After Silence" presents over 30 original songs that, according to Treviño, "have not yet had their moment in the sun." the result is an original, musical adventure which can be best described as theater-meets-art rock.
The band also performs a wildly entertaining set of covers. Its title is simply The Donkey Show, and is without a doubt the most party-friendly act. Featuring songs by The Cult, Ozzy Osbourne, and David Bowie, The Donkey Show is a live show that encourages people to let loose and enjoy themselves. Treviño adds that this is perhaps the most requested outfit, as he has found it to be "the band that people hire to play three sets in a night for their club or private party."
The third performance from The Donkey Show is "DIRT, the Tribute - A Musical Tribute to Alice in Chains" in which the band presents its take on the songs of the 1990's grunge icons. This is a 90-minute concert experience, and is very trying "for all of us as players and incredibly demanding on me as the singer." Because no other band has dared to take on something as adventurous as Alice in Chains, DIRT has recently become a fan favorite amongst devoted followers of The Donkey Show.
