About:

GORAN IVANOVIC – Solo Acoustic Guitarist & Composer

Goran Ivanovic is a genre-defying solo guitarist whose original compositions draw from a rich tapestry of influences—classical, Balkan, cinematic soundtracks, and contemporary harmonic language. Rooted in the acoustic tradition yet constantly evolving, his music blends intricate fingerstyle technique with deeply emotional storytelling.

Born into the cultural crosscurrents of Eastern Europe and shaped by years of classical training and global collaboration, Goran's solo work is a deeply personal exploration of identity, place, and sound. Each piece is a journey—at once intimate and expansive—merging the precision of classical music with the soulful intensity of Balkan folk and the evocative depth of film scores.

This season, Goran will debut a never-before-performed original set, offering audiences a first glimpse of his new material. Additionally, he is set to release a highly anticipated solo record later this year.

Performing on both classical and acoustic guitars, Goran’s playing is virtuosic and lyrical, captivating listeners with fluid dynamics, harmonic complexity, and rhythmic drive. He performs exclusively on masterfully crafted instruments: acoustic guitars by Collings Guitars and classical guitars by renowned Granada luthier Juan García Fernández. These exceptional instruments are integral to his artistry, offering nuanced expression and commanding projection.

Goran’s compositions bridge tradition and modernity, showcasing the solo guitar as a profoundly expressive and complete musical language. Whether on stage or in the studio, his performances are immersive musical journeys—transcending genres and borders to resonate deeply with audiences everywhere.

SJOD "Love Isn’t Supposed To Hurt" Album Release Show with special guests Haruhi Kobayashi and OMO

‘Service charges apply to ALL ticket purchases (online and box office)’ - Credit card only at door

About:

SJOD has been called the preeminent livetronica IDM dark horse of Chicago. A hardware electronic musician in the Chicago zone for the last decade, SJOD has always focused on pushing boundaries in live performance and in improv-focused electronic music. Citing influences from Sun Ra, Aphex Twin, The Grateful Dead, and Alice Coltrane, SJOD brings a cerebral approach to performing electronic music and bringing hardware electronics to life. SJOD is a cofounder of the independent Chicago record label Truth Zone Records, performs in psych-rock band Curls Ultra, and leads his own jamtronica band - SJOD’s Lot Justice - when not performing solo. Love Isn’t Supposed To Hurt is SJOD’s sophomore album and the first time his music has been pressed to vinyl. The album is an ethereal and sentimental approach to an “RnB” influenced take on vocal-focused songs centered on love, spite, and heartbreak. Love Isn't Supposed To Hurt explores themes of the cosmos and finding serenity in a chaotic world while still having the light and humorous touch that SJOD has been known for prior in his music and performances. A run of 100 12" vinyl records is now available for preorder on SJOD's Bandcamp, pressed locally in Chicago, IL at Smashed Plastic Record Pressing.

Pulling at these past threads, she explores the themes of bi-cultural identity, tradition, and existentialism while seeking to liberate sound from preconception. Her work distills experimental pop, classical composition, and avant-garde songwriting through voice, bass, and electronics.

About:

With old soul vulnerability and a rich vocal palette, indie artist Susie McCollum lives at the intersection of raw emotion and refined craft. Originally from New York City and now based in Chicago, McCollum blends timeless songwriting with a contemporary edge - drawing inspiration from artists like Joni Mitchell, Norah Jones, and Amy Winehouse.

A lifelong student of music, McCollum’s journey spans opera, theater, jazz, R&B, & folk -  providing an eclectic background that informs her textured, authentic sound. Her mesmerizing and poetic lyricism is fueled by compassion, wit, and an insatiable curiosity about the human experience. Susie is also a self-taught guitarist - a pandemic hobby turned renewed sense of artistic purpose.

Susie arrived on the scene with the celebrated single  “New Year’s Eve” in 2022, praised by A&R Factory as a “part-love song, part-indie-soulful ode to bittersweet tradition.” Her 2024 debut EP Tempt My Fate captivated audiences as "stirring and uniquely powerful” (CLOUT Magazine) for its soulful vocal and poignant songwriting. She has worked alongside artists like Christopher, Nep, and Marielle Kraft, while most recently co-writing “I Should Lose You” with indie-pop artist Jenny Kern. In addition to singing, writing, and producing, Susie has also honed her skills as a recording engineer - enabling her to truly inhabit every layer of the creative process.

Susie released her highly anticipated single “Abigail” on October 24th, whose "dreamy hush works medicinally; it doesn’t push catharsis, it coaxes it" (Uranium Waves). The work is fueled by finding a home within oneself and asking: what does it mean to truly grow up… and do we ever? 

Through heartfelt melodies and soul-stirring lyrics, Susie invites listeners into a shared space of introspection and re-invention - marking her a singular and invaluable talent in today’s music scene.

About:

Afro Dead is a musical collective formed in 2022 by Aaron Feder to reimagine the music of the Grateful Dead in Afro-Pop styles, such as soukous, Afrobeat, high-life, reggae and more. He has been able to use his experience as founder and band leader of Alma Afrobeat Ensemble (four albums, four US tours) and co-founder of the record label Slow Walk Music (home to African music made in Spain) resulting in a Summer 2024 tour of the US and Canada, and a Fall 2024 tour of Spain.

For 2026 the band will feature the amazing Zimbabwean-American singer Lady Chi (Chiedza Kundidzora). She is a fixture in the Grateful Dead world, touring with Melvin Seals and JGB, as well as many other funk/soul projects. 

Aaron Feder has been a lifelong participant in the Grateful Dead’s music scene, having played and recorded with Grammy award winners Peter Rowan and Eric Krasno, as well as members of Phil Lesh and Friends, Greensky Bluegrass, Leftover Salmon, Everyone Orchestra and much more. Aaron’s varied musical experiences has helped create a vibrant, one-of-a-kind musical project, mixing classic Americana compositions with danceable African grooves and a healthy dose of improvisation.

The band’s version of Dark Star was featured on the compilation “The Music Plays the Band” alongside Dark Star Orchestra, Oteil Burbridge, ALO and many more.
