Five bands. One long night of Chicago originals, country grit, alt-Americana, and rock-n-roll heat.
7:00 PM – Helen Huff
Indie songwriter Helen Huff delivers deeply emotive, quietly powerful songs that blend folk sensibility with raw lyrical honesty. Her track “Change of Heart” showcases her warm voice, storytelling instincts, and subtle melodic hooks — the kind of opener that pulls a room in and keeps them listening.

8:00 PM –The Revenirs
Americana, roots rock, and storytelling steeped in Midwestern grit. With The Revenirs behind him, the sound expands into driving arrangements, textured guitar work, and vocals that cut through with heart and gravel. A polished, road-ready act made for late-set energy.

9:00 PM – The Cold Motions
A gun-toting, whiskey-drinking country band with Chicago attitude. The Cold Motions bring rowdy outlaw energy, stomping rhythms, and the kind of honky-tonk swagger made for long nights, loud bars, and sloshing whiskey glasses. Tough, twangy, and unapologetically wild.

10:00 PM – Trick Shooter Social Club
An explosive mix of Americana, blues, rock, and cinematic storytelling, Trick Shooter Social Club deliver big-hearted, whiskey-soaked anthems with swagger. Their live sets swing from dusty-road ballads to full-throttle barn burners — one of Chicago’s most dynamic roots-rock outfits.

11:00 PM – Decoy Prayer Meeting
Since 2004, Decoy Prayer Meeting has been reviving the fire of classic honky-tonk and rockabilly. Their sets pay homage to legends like Webb Pierce, Carl Perkins, and Gram Parsons — combining twang, shuffle, and authentic old-school country grit. Chicago’s own revival tent for real-deal roots music.

A stacked night of Chicago originals spanning indie rock, groove-heavy roots, post-punk tension, and late-night heaviness. Come early, stay late.
8:00 PM – Connoisseurs
Chicago’s Connoisseurs deliver sharp, melodic indie rock built on tight guitar interplay, thoughtful hooks, and a gritty-but-witty edge. Their live sets balance classic rock sensibilities with modern DIY energy, making for an engaging and high-energy opener.

9:00 PM – Frantastic Sound System
A creole-infused Chicago boogie unit blending zydeco, roots, Americana, and high-energy groove. Frantastic Sound System brings Louisiana-inspired rhythms, vibrant accordion-driven textures, and a full-on party vibe that gets the room moving. Danceable, joyful, and steeped in tradition with Chicago flair.

10:00 PM – Anxiety Patrol
A post-punk trio delivering taut basslines, scratchy guitars, and deadpan vocals with relentless intensity. Anxiety Patrol’s stripped-down, kinetic sound hits hard and fast, channeling tension and momentum into raw, high-impact live performances.

11:00 PM – Invisible Solids
Invisible Solids close the night with immersive, heavy atmospheres blending doom, sludge, and experimental density. Rumbling low end, layered noise, and expansive compositions make their set hypnotic, visceral, and perfectly suited for late-night exploration.
