Local band Umphreys Mcgee (with Lotus and Tea Leaf Green) will play the annual Jam in the Dam next March. This will be Umphreys third trip to the Venice of the North.
Newcity reports on their power 45 in the city's music biz. Kayne West and Pete Wentz come in 1,2. Double Door and Metro owner Joe Shanahan comes in at a high 3, beating out many corporate big wigs. Our favorite - lucky number 13, Bruce Finkleman, Empty Bottle Owner.
Illinois Entertainer reports on local releases including Suffrajett, Shipwreck and Kurt Elling. But the Eternals mix of electro-dub may be the best album of the bunch.
