Note: This is my second post for today. Earlier, I offered a preview of the opening night of this year’s International Pop Overthrow - Chicago. The six-act showcase starts at 7:30 pm at Montrose Saloon on the north side. I’m hoping to post a preview for each day of the festival.
Courtesy Patrol, one of the more recent bands to latch on to the talented and humorous guitarist-vocalist Dag Juhlin as a member, promises to “bring you musical joy in all forms - classics, deep cuts, and beyond” this Thursday night at the Friendly Tap in Berwyn. Whatever that means, it sounds like fun, and there’s no cover charge. The joy starts at 8:30 pm.
“Time To Let Some Light In,” the first single from singer-songwriter Steve Dawson’s upcoming album Ghosts, comes out on Pravda Records this Friday. In the meantime, the online Glide Magazine is offering the video premiere. Dawson is quoted as describing the song as having “gone through a lot of changes over time.” Watching the clip, it’s easy to see he was successful in switching to a more positive message for this well-crafted Americana song. The album Ghosts is due out June 7.
Stompin’ Grounds Cafe in Lake Zurich is staging one of its semi-regular live music events tomorrow night with a Spring Fling featuring acoustic music by the Face N Time band. The music starts at 7:00 pm, and the cafe promises “great treats [and] wonderful drinks” will be available for sale. Reservations are recommended.
Chicago indie rock band Vinto Van Go, which describes its approach as, “Chicago-style psychedelic music rooted in this city’s garage rock and soul music,” has an album release show coming up this Thursday at the Epiphany Center For The Arts. The 321’s, a recently formed group that’s already busy on the local club scene, is also on the bill. In addition to live music, Epiphany Center For The Arts has art galleries, and serves drinks and appetizers. It’s located at 201 S. Ashland. The doors open at 5:00 pm, the music starts at 7:00 pm.
