Start the new year off with a bang and join us for three local bands for a night of great music! Instead of staying in on a cold January Sunday evening why not warm up by the hot tunes of Chicago bands? We’ll have mocktails and coffee for those observing dry January and cocktails, beer, and wine for those who aren’t. At only $10 a ticket, you can’t afford not to come! And remember, we always have free parking.
The Line Up:
6:30 pm Ab Lag
Forming a band through Reddit may sound like a one-sentence horror story, but by a stroke of luck it worked for Ab Lag. Named after the singer, the tetrad of musicians combine their unique life experiences to create melodic rock for people who yearn. With influences like Radiohead, Paramore, The Strokes, and Incubus, Ab Lag provides a unique blend of genre that isn’t heard at every show.
