Josh Caterer’s NEW ALBUM “The SPACE Sessions” follows in the footsteps of his critically-acclaimed early 2021 release The Hideout Sessions, which was recorded at the beloved small Chicago venue that album took its title from. Caterer reunites with bassist John San Juan (Hushdrops) and drummer John Perrin (NRBQ) for another electrifying performance, this time recorded at SPACE, an intimate concert hall on the city's north side. Caterer first burst onto the Chicago punk scene in 1991 with Smoking Popes who he formed with his brothers Eli and Matt. From their early indie releases to their critically acclaimed major label albums, Smoking Popes developed a unique blend of buzzsaw guitars and caffeinated rhythms.

Nora O'Connor's dance card has been jam-packed in recent years, as she's toured and recorded with The Decemberists, Neko Case, The New Pornographers, and her beloved Chicago band The Flat Five. She finally found her way back to the studio to write and record music of her own. The result is My Heart, ten songs of pure Nora, a stunning reflection of her eclectic taste and spectacular talent. Songs range from Linda Rondstadt-esque 70s country rock to heartbreakingly sweet folk reminiscent of her heroes: The Roches, Norma Tanega and Margo Guryan (Nora humbly covers one of Guryan's songs on this new release) to danceable Bacharach-inspired piano pop. My Heart is sonically driven by her smooth acoustic guitar playing and impossibly rich vocals, with stellar support from longtime collaborators in the Flat Five; Casey McDonough, Scott Ligon, and Alex Hall (Hall also co-produced), as well as Pravda labelmate Steve Dawson. Lush harmonies push it all right over the top. This was worth the wait.

Shravan Raghuram is a musician, visual artist, videographer, artist manager, event organizer and indie workaholic based in Chicago, IL. Raghuram’s project ‘When the Wall Breaks Down’ is an exploration into the areas between artist and audience, and the ideas between cosciousness and the subconscious. ‘When the Wall Breaks Down’ is many things: a YouTube channel, a DIY cassette tape label, a music blog, and, on nights like these, an improvisation-based musical venture.

Garrett Frank is a singer/songwriter based in Chicago, IL. He makes music for vegetable gardens and incense sticks- a lover with sincere disdain for the lottery.

Before forming in the Chicago suburbs, the self-proclaimed 'indie-punk' band Feed the Monkeys have been making music together since 2015.

Rachael Davis is felt before she is seen or heard, like a pressure drop or a disturbance in the force. The room suddenly gets...jollier.  Peals of uproarious laughter inevitably follow, from her and from those around her.  Exclamations of "HOLY CRAP!" descend like little hailstorms of love and mirth.  And when she stops telling stories about her beloved family or her crazy life long enough to sing a song, you feel the resonations of her deeply empathetic message deep in your subconscious:  this is music for healing, for realizing darkness exists but never letting it run your business.  For more than 30 years, starting back with her family band in the north woods of Michigan, for fomative years in the Boston music scene, and continuing into the present as a beloved Nashville fixture, Rachael has been weaving orbs of commanding melody, ensnaring enraptured audiences around the nation, whether alone, or with any number of collaborators, including vocal nightingale trio the Sweet Water Warblers, and her husband Dominic John Davis, master of the bass (as opposed to bassmaster). Before you get the impression it's all fun and games....listen closer.  There is a serious dedication to craft in her near-operatic vocals, her guitar work, her banjo scholarship, and her commitment to the language and traditions of folk music, while pushing it to new fresh places.  

Rachael Davis recordings are few and far between, having dedicated more time to both the art of performance and the art of raising her frankly delightful children, but a few have escaped: Minor League Deities (2000), Live In Bremen, Germany (2004), Antebellum Queens (2008), Bandbox Jubilee (2014), plus releases with Shout Sister Shout! and The Sweet Water Warblers. And, great news, more recordings are coming very soon!  A new compilation called A Few Good Ones, available exclusively at tour dates for now, contains two unreleased songs from about a decade ago that were recently unearthed, and brand new sessions are under way for a (fingers crossed) 2024 release.  The world needs more Rachael Davis music, and Rachael Davis needs more of the world to put down their sorrows and raise a communal voice in celebration of the hilarious beauty of life.  You know how something embarrassing or awful happens, and we say, oh we'll laugh about it later?  Rachael knows life is short:  laugh now.

R.O. Shapiro is a purveyor of original Americana music, carefully crafted and soulfully sung. Originally from the very east end of Long Island, NY, he spent several years touring and recording with the acoustic trio Odell Fox. When the members of the group went their separate ways in 2017, R.O. settled down in Austin, TX, where he developed a full-band, electrified sound, as heard on his 2021 release King Electric Sessions. A powerful performer of original heartfelt songs, and with a little bit of New York swagger and Texas twang, he’s drawn comparisons to Josh Ritter, Ray LaMontagne, and Nathaniel Rateliff. R.O. is a winner of the 2022 Kerrville Folk Festival New Folk songwriting contest, a 2024 NewSong Competition finalist, has recently toured with May Erlewine, Jeffrey Martin, and Taylor Ashton, and will soon release a four-song 45 he recorded in part with producer/instrumentalist Phil Cook (Bon Iver, Hiss Golden Messenger.) He is currently based in Northern California, and regularly tours solo in the US and Canada, always on the lookout for new communities and stages where he can share his authentic warmth and wit.

Adela:

With simple arrangements and warm honesty, Adela fuses elements of classical music, folk music and pop music to create a unique sound that is as comforting as her cello. Adela is a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter who performs on cello, guitar, piano and ukulele. Daughter of Polish immigrants, and a natural born people pleaser, Adela has made a career out of preserving people’s stories: through writing songs, creating podcasts, working for the radio, and even helping other artists with their musical arrangements.

Bomethius:

Bomethius is the baroque pop project led by Jonathan Hodges, a multi-instrumentalist singer- songwriter based in Chicago. A dynamic vocalist and capable composer who’s equally skilled on the piano, violin, and guitar, Hodges draws from decades of classical training to craft a mischievous brand of chamber rock that echoes the sounds of Andrew Bird, Randy Newman, and Elliott Smith.

Hannah Frank:

Hannah’s music balances on the tightrope between Americana and lyrical folk-pop. Her guitar playing is drenched in simple cowboy chords and long-lost melodies, with driving rhythms and relaxing patterns. Full of characters and situations, each song is like a page from a novel.

The stage has always been home for Liam Taylor. At the young age of 5, he spent most of his time acting in plays and musicals.

In his short career, he has worked with artists including Johnathon McReynolds, Erykah Badu, Woody Goss of Vulfpeck, and many more. Since releasing music in 2022, he has performed at many of the city's acclaimed festivals, including Lollapalooza, Taste of Chicago, and Market Days, and has headlined shows in New York, Dallas, and in different parts of Europe.
