It’s been a little quiet here this week; I blame the heat, which has sapped my will to move. I played a bit longer of a set this time around, but I’ll be back to my usual two-hour bonanza of fun next week. Â As always, you can hear my delightful music selections every Friday night […]

The rain is threatening to keep me out of Millennium Park tonight, no matter how badly I want to see Low and Glen Hansard. But a three day weekend means that I might be hitting up all sorts of shows. Maybe. I’ve got my eye on you, weather. Monday, June 27 Low, Glen Hansard; Millennium […]

It looks like a quiet week, but I find myself strangely busy. I’ll be checking out the Laura Marling show tomorrow night, and Jerome Holloway’s show on Friday. I saw him open for Nneka in February and thought he was really good, so I’m looking forward to seeing what he does with a headlining spot. Saturday also has some strong line-ups of local bands, both at Bottom Lounge and at the Beat Kitchen.
