Friday May 18th at the Trumbullplex
with Prison Wine, Scissor Now, and the Cupcake Collective. Doors at 8pm.
$5-$20 suggested donation.
All-ages
Take care,

DIY CHI is a Chicago collective with the long-term goal of establishing an all-ages DIY show and cultural space in the city. That’s no easy task, so as the group works toward the space, they also collectively organize shows and work on other projects to try to connect DIY cultural communities across the city. To those ends, they’ve released a comp tape featuring a diverse set of Chicago bands and performers.
You can stream/download the comp on the DIY CHI Bandcamp Page (and there are physical copies floating around if you visit Chicago or see one of the bands on tour).
I made a bedroom recording along with my housemate Jeff Jablonski playing banjo that appears on the digital version (but not the tape version due to a technical fuck-up).
