« Announcing the 6th Annual Gapers Block Party! | Chicago Rocked: Chicago Music in the 1990s » |
Contest Wed Aug 26 2009
The Ettes @ Subterranean (plus, a contest)
The Ettes add a sexy '60s swagger to punk rock that sounds like they could soundtrack a Tarantino B-film all on their own. Think of them as a modern version of Nancy Sinatra--with fuzz pedals. The trio started off as an all girl group, but Jem joined the ladies before they put out their first album, Shake the Dust, in 2006. They have a new album coming out next month, but you can see them live here in Chicago on Friday night at Subterranean.
What's that you say? You want to go for free? Well, you're in luck because we're giving away a pair of tickets to Friday's show. Just be the first to email us at contests@gapersblock.com with the subject line "Ettes!" and you'll be going with a friend for $0. [Update!] We have a winner! Congrats to Emily!
White Mystery, Buzzer, Impediments and Tiger Spirit also play. 9:30pm. Tickets are $10. 2011 W. North Ave. 17 & up.
