Caught up with Andru and Elisabeth recently, before a show they played at Uncommon Ground Devon. They are from Michigan, and will be gracing the final day of our festival, later this month. (June 30th at Jerry’s). Andru and Elisabeth are two of the finest people and performers we have ever encountered. These videos were filmed in the rooftop garden at Uncommon Ground.

Elisabeth tells a story.

The Independent Chicago Songwriter Tour!

This week we feature ‘The River Willows’, a brand new project from Chris Fisher.

Chris talks about the song in the video, and the story behind the project.

A year ago, Independent Chicago was born. Ty Maxon was our first feature. Today, we are featuring him again, for our 1 year anniversary. Ty has a brand new cd out, which you can find at tymaxon.bandcamp.com. This song is even newer than that. Enjoy!

It’s been a while since we had a feature. Glad to be back, and we have a wonderful group to show you. Facing Winter hails from West Chicago, and have been a staple of the Chicago music scene for over a decade. So excited to be able to feature them here!
