JONAS FRIDDLE & THE MAJORITY (10:30 pm): Chicago-based band Jonas Friddle & The Majority, who met one another through the Windy City institution The Old Town School of Folk Music, take full advantage of their city’s rich and diverse musical scene on their third album, "Use Your Voice." The seven-member group plays what they’ve come to describe as “orchestral folk,” along the lines of Joy Kills Sorrow or Lake Street Dive, incorporating trumpet, trombone, drums, and keyboard alongside traditional acoustic instruments. The result is an irresistible, “Uncle Dave Macon meets Duke Ellington” sound on songs like “Old Mother Logo,” on which Friddle’s clawhammer banjo weaves through jaunty horns, and “Keep My Skillet Good and Greasy,” where Bailey Doyle, the group’s cello player, delivers a brassy, bluesy vocal turn. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Jonas-Friddle-Music/204452666263811?id=204452666263811&sk=info

THE HOWLIN' BROTHERS (9:30 pm) are an American band through and through. From down right dirty blues, to hard driving fiddle romps, the brothers keep audiences on their heels with their diverse sets and energetic picking and singing. "...Howling Brothers songs, while lyrically simple, pack the sonic whallop of blistering angst and attitude. Contrasted by songs full of melodic heart tugs, and still more songs that are just plain ole killer!" (Kim Buie, Thirty Tigers in Nashville, TN) https://www.facebook.com/HowlingBrothers

MICHELE McGUIRE (8:30 pm) is an indie folk singer-songwriter from Chicago. Her debut album, Mid-Western, is the 23-year-old’s view of growing up on Chicago’s South Side as well as traveling the rest of the country. “I think being from the Midwest is a really funny place to be from, because you don’t really have a 'thing.' You could be anything” McGuire says.  http://michelemcguire.com/
