Show Calendar
June 2012 – August 2014
Chicago’s own, JC Brooks & the Uptown Sound are playing a free show at Reckless Records in Lakeview on Record Store Day (Saturday 4/20). It’s an acoustic set, but something tells me it’s still going to get crowded in there…
I’ve seen Conor Oberst with Bright Eyes, Monsters of Folk, and as himself, but never with Desaparecidos – his rock band. They put out one awesome record called Read Music, Speak Spanish 10 years ago and then disappeared until reuniting for a small reunion tour last summer. This is their first time in Chicago since reforming.
Tickets
Opener: Laura Stevenson
Tim Kasher of Cursive and The Good Life is coming to the Empty Bottle on his tour for his second solo album, Adult Film – out October 8th.
6:00 pm doors / 8:00 show
Opener: Juan Wauters
The late show sold out before I got my shit together, so I’m going to the 6:30 show. I saw this young Canadian at Pitchfork and he was awesome. I’m looking forward to this one. Bonus – I can be drunk and home by 10:00 pm.
– Lollapalooza Pre-Show –
Opener: Pujol
Opener: Wooden Shjips
To be honest, I’m probably going to be pretty haggard at this point after 5 consecutive days of shows, culminating with Lollapalooza. But if somehow I’m magically alive, I’ll come check out this rad Chicago natives for free in Millennium Park.
