Luciano's performance takes the audience on a tour of Brazil by presenting a wide variety of Brazilian compositions combined with his own originals. In his Performance Luciano contrasts songs that have rich and complex harmonies and melodies with simple rhythms against songs that have simple harmonies and melodies with very complex rhythms, and the dynamics range from pure solo guitar and voice to the full sound of the rich Brazilian percussion in a fascinating musical way. Luciano released three albums, two of which are original music "Vida De Artista - An Artist's Life" in 2011 and “Sem Palavras – Without Words” in 2015. His 3rd Album is a 'Live Concert" at the prestigious Jazz Showcase. Make no mistake; Luciano has placed his stamp on the Brazilian music scene in Chicago.

About Lindsay Anderson:

Chicago-based singer-songwriter Lindsay Anderson is best known for her work with the critically acclaimed dream pop, chamber-rock group L'Altra. Now Anderson is back with her new solo project -- the conceptual album Forgiving. Inspired by the romantic entanglement of surrealist painters Leonora Carrington and Max Ernst as well as her own experience, the album is a heroine's journey told through music, exploring themes of artistic identity, power dynamics, feminine self-reclamation and defining one’s voice within male-dominated creative spaces. Lindsay has shared the stage with the Cowboy Junkies and Todd Rundgren (Park West), indie musicians The Stars, Bill Callahan/Smog and Cat Power, electronic artist Damo Suzuki and Drag City groups Edith Frost and Bonnie Prince Billy. Forgiving is her eighth studio album, after Same Waves (2018).

“Susie McCollum beautifully traverses the world of alternative pop/jazz with a unique twist that taps into her multi-disciplined background” (EARMILK Magazine).

Susie McCollum is a New York City-born, Chicago-based singer/songwriter, producer, and audio engineer. She brings a soulful and poignant voice to the indie scene, drawing inspiration from the likes of Joni Mitchell, Norah Jones, and Amy Winehouse.

She has since performed all over the country, opening for artists like Christopher, Jenny Kern, and Marielle Kraft. Her debut EP, “Tempt My Fate”, is out on all streaming platforms. @susiemccollum

About:

If you were around during Chicago’s underground House Music movement or Rave scene in the late 80’s and early 90’s, then you’ll be utterly familiar with the name Julio Bishop. Whether from appearing weekly on some of the hottest party flyers throughout the Midwest or because you had a copy of his now infamous mix tape, “Love Nation” sold out of all the local record stores, the name Julio Bishop is synonymous with jacking dance floors since 1987.

Getting his start as a dancer and DJ in Chicago’s nightclubs and warehouses, but soon expanding his influence; from NYC to LA, to the beaches of Miami, Puerto Rico and Mexico, Germany and Sicily, Julio has been bringing his deep, mystifying grooves to the world for over 3 decades. His intimate knowledge of classic Afro-Latin and Jazz, , as well as his acquired proficiency of Disco, Electronica, Club & Deep House takes his sets far outside the realm of what is attainable by a greener selection of DJ’s.

Funneling his talents into the studio in the early 2000’s, Julio helped launch RealDEEP Recordings, along side label partner Brian Cullen (aka Bjak) where, together they paved the way to further coproductions and solo projects on labels such as Deep Explorer Music (Madrid) and Eargasmic Recordings (Chicago).

With more releases on the way and a selection of upcoming gigs scheduled between Chicago. Puerto Rico, LA & Hawaii, you’ll want to keep your eyes peeled for what’s to come next from this proved House Music veteran.

Free Blues Friday featuring Smiley Tillmon Band with Kate Moss

Doors: 5:00PM to Venue | 7:30PM to Epiphany Hall

Showtime: 8:00PM

Tickets: Free admission! RSVP BELOW

About Smiley Tillmon Band:

One of the busiest blues outfits in Chicagoland, the Smiley Tillmon Band is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser. There’s an obvious reason why the veteran guitarist’s booking schedule is so jam-packed: Smiley knows how to have a good time and makes sure his audience does too. After 55 years on the local blues scene, Tillmon serves up the blues and soul standards that people never seem to stop craving, his rich vocals and fluid guitar backed by a band that keeps his grooves tight and right.

Born Moses Tillmon in rural Jefferson County, Georgia, Smiley grew up on a hearty musical diet of gospel, country, and a little blues. His mother moved to Fort Lauderdale when he was ten; there he was exposed to calypso music, adding up to a singular list of influences. Tillmon took up guitar and was good enough by the dawn of the ‘60s to back Miami R&B singer Billy Miranda in the studio. He joined Sammy Ambrose & the Afro-Beats, a calypso-oriented band, touring from Canada to New York. Smiley bid the Afro-Beats adieu in 1962 and moved to Chicago. There he established himself on the blues circuit, playing with Billy “The Kid” Emerson, Denise LaSalle, and other South Side luminaries until he opted for a day job in 1977.

Upon his 2007 retirement, Smiley reverted to full-time musical status. He joined forces with bassist Tom Rezetko, and they’ve been inseparable onstage ever since. Kate Moss shares guitar duties with Tillmon; married to another blues guitar standout, Nick Moss, Kate’s sound is heavily influenced by Freddie King and Magic Sam (she fell in love with the blues at age 21 when she met Buddy Guy, and she’s shared stages with Buddy, Jimmy Johnson, Eddie Shaw, and Lurrie Bell, to name just a few). Drummer George Baumann completes one of the Windy City’s toughest blues combos, one that’ll keep you smiling from ear to ear. - Bill Dahl

About Cortisa Star:

Cortisa Star is a 19-year-old rapper, model, and cultural firestarter reshaping what it means

to be an artist in 2025. Born in Baltimore and raised in rural Delaware, she emerged from the

digital underground with nothing but BandLab, boldness, and a fearless sense of self. What

started as a TikTok joke — calling herself an “underground rap princess” — quickly became a

movement.

Her breakout single “Fun” went viral in early 2024 after a raw From The Block freestyle,

racking up over 5 million global streams and pushing her unapologetically trans identity into

the mainstream. While the track sparked controversy, it also earned co-signs from Charli

XCX, Lil Nas X, Doechii, and Arca, and landed her features in The FADER, Dazed, Out

Magazine, and Pitchfork.

Cortisa’s music fuses distorted 808s, Jersey club rhythms, and chaotic hyperpop energy — as

heard on her debut EP, E.M.O. (Evil Motion Overload), released in April 2025. Produced by

umru and other underground heavyweights, the project showcases her sharp lyricism and

emotional intensity across standout tracks like “Misidentify” and “Paris,” which references her

runway debut at Miu Miu’s Fall/Winter 2025 show.

In fashion, Cortisa has quickly become a muse for the new generation. With a self-described

“maximalist junk” aesthetic — equal parts thrift-store ravewear and Tumblr girl glam —

she’s been featured in Vogue, i-D, The Face, and W, and is signed to Next Models. Her

runway appearances and fashion editorials make her one of the few openly trans artists

blurring the lines between music, style, and identity at a global level.

With over 20 million streams, a growing presence in both rap and fashion, and a message that

refuses to be diluted, Cortisa Star is not just a rising artist — she’s a cultural force.

About Bayymack:

Bayymack - Fresh off a 40+ city U.S. tour with legendary myspace band Brokencyde,

Bayymack has built a proven fanbase and established himself as a staple in the hyperpop and

scenecore movement. With breakout singles like “Make a Wish” (w/ Ayesha Erotica, Strgurrl)

and “Stalk Me” (w/ 6arelyhuman), he’s performed alongside renowned names such as Three 6

Mafia, City Morgue, and Lil Tracy, supported on several parties for Ayesha Erotica, as well as

performed several times at Subculture and Heav3n parties in Los Angeles. Bayymack continues to cement his

place in the underground with collaborations across alternative rap and dance pop.

About PROXOXIE:

PROXOXIE First became known on Soundcloud, amassing a small following while exploring niche hyperpop themes. Her debut, “Darling, It Wouldn’t Be A Party Without You,” packs Proxoxie’s authentic voice into a hardstyle EDM punch. That record gave us realism—forthcoming “Hotel Proxoxie” stages surreal journeys to self-acceptance in seven sinful acts, over twinkling elevator muzak. Now, with “everysecondeverymoment” PROXOXIE explores the genre of trace in her newest album.

About Jade Maze:

Jade Maze mixes soul, jazz, and pop into one big heart-filled voice. From the first note, you know she is singing about lived experiences. Whether sharing a H.E.R. cover, a jazz standard, or an original song, her delivery is profound and unique. She started out with soul and jazz bands on the West Coast, toured with her original band on the East Coast, and made Chicago her home in the mid-90s, where she split duties between her own band and singing with jazz/blues/contemporary ensembles. She loves the intimacy of duo work as well, especially with guitar, bass, or piano.

Jade also happens to be an award-winning author. Her debut memoir, Walk Until Sunrise, took a first-place world literary prize (Rome), and the follow-up memoir entitled Mercy’s View: Blackout won a 2025 Best Book Pinnacle Achievement Award. The memoirs chronicle her teenage runaway experience, her reentry into society, and her singing career. To offset the intensity of that work, Jade writes short stories where at least one of the story characters is a singer (Music Notes: Tales from an American Singer). They are hilarious!

So come hear some songs, read a book, have a refreshing beverage, and enjoy!

Jade and Bradley reunite for a night of music that personifies the rich, heartwarming notes of a hot mulled red wine.

About Bradley Williams:

Grammy-nominated pianist/arranger with Woody Herman’s Thundering Herd, creator of The Original 21st Century Review, Musical Director at both The Gold Star Sardine Bar and, currently, Le Piano in Chicago on Saturday nights. Toured with his ensembles in the Middle East and India. Internationally syndicated Radio Personality on WFMT’s “Words and Music.” Composer and Educator.

From downtempo to techno & beyond, no spaced-out niche is left untouched.

Inspired by countless excursions on Lake Michigan, Lakefx brings the hypnotic ambiance of flowing water to the dancefloor.

Mentrek:

The Mentrek Project has been brewing since 2022.

What started as a series of modular jam sessions and late night hangouts began to take shape over 2023 and 2024, as they invited more of our friends to spend an evening banging out dance tunes. Over the years it's grown to involve 10 artists, unified under the vision of club-ready, bass- heavy tracks molded by Nuan Sonar and Thysbe.

As they’ve progressed and grew through these collaborations, a system emerged. Hours of recordings of eurorack synthesizers, analog drum machines, and vintage records would then be cut up and arranged. Each track aims to have a solid progression, morphing between techno, dubstep, breaks, and footwork. We refuse to be put in a box, and are constantly experimenting and stealing ideas to refit to our own ideals.

RED40:

Lake Effect’s merry pranksters Swesdo & Rimjickles have joined forces to present a dive into the fantastic. WARNING: RED40’s whimsical, dialed, and gyration inducing grooves may result in: erratic movements, existential crisis, involuntary joy amongst loved ones, and the urge to smoke 4 or 5 CBD darts. You may leave with the urge to worldbuild amongst your groupchat, no matter how many messages it takes to drive your point home. Let's kick off the evening in shplendrick style and soak up the RED40…

About:

Nogu Svelo!, the legendary punk rock band originated in Russia and is now based in the United States. Known for their energetic sound and fearless political stance, the band continues to use music as a force for change, raising awareness about the ongoing war in Ukraine and standing against oppression.

Fresh off the sixth leg of their world tour, which spanned 65 gigs across 64 cities in Europe, Asia, North and South America, Nogu Svelo! has not only brought their music to a global audience but also raised $100,000 for Ukraine through their performances.

A Legacy of Resistance and Musical Innovation

With a career spanning 35 years, Nogu Svelo! has built a cult following since their beginnings in 1988 as part of the famous Moscow Rock Laboratory. The band has released 16 full-length albums, 71 official music videos, and has won multiple awards across Russia and Europe, including MTV Russia’s Best Soundtrack Award.

While Nogu Svelo! originally gained recognition in Russia, the band is now fully based in the U.S., delivering English-language versions of their biggest hits alongside brand-new material recorded with their American lineup.

Frontman Max Pokrovskiy—the band’s lead singer, bassist, and principal songwriter—has been an outspoken critic of Vladimir Putin’s regime for years. Due to his support for Alexei Navalny and his unwavering anti-war stance, he has been banned from performing in Russia. Since the start of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Pokrovskiy has released ten powerful anti-war anthems (“We Don’t Need War,” “Russia, Go Home!”, “Ukraine”...) were included in the album “Amputation”.

Art as Activism: Global Recognition for Nogu Svelo!

Beyond their musical success, Nogu Svelo! has been recognized for their politically charged music videos, which have won multiple international awards. Their recent works, “Prison Romance” and “Happy New Year, My Son,” have been celebrated at film festivals such as:

● DOC LA: Los Angeles Documentary Film Festival

● Los Angeles Cinematography Awards (LACA)

● Cinema World Fest Awards

● New York State International Film Festival

Music with a Mission: Humanitarian Efforts

In addition to their musical activism, Nogu Svelo! has actively fundraised for Ukraine through various efforts, including:

● Raising funds for World Unite for Ukraine via an online concert.

● Supporting a refugee shelter in Tbilisi, Georgia.

● Participating in the GCI Planet Charity Event: Peace, Music, and Art Soiree.

● Raising funds for two ambulances for Ukraine during their European tour via the charity Zeilen van Vrijheid.

● Contributing to the purchase of a mobile hospital for Ukraine through a charity talk show in Cyprus.

● Supporting a children’s hospice in Ukraine during a performance in Amsterdam.

In August 2023, Nogu Svelo! performed at the first independent anti-war film festival, AWIIFF, playing a powerful open-air concert for over 1,000 people in Estonia.

A Call to Action Through Music

Nogu Svelo! continues to stand against war, censorship, and tyranny, using their music as a rallying cry for freedom. As the world watches the ongoing conflict, the band remains dedicated to spreading their message of resistance and unity through the most powerful medium they know—music.

About:

Step into a one-of-a-kind experience where the spirit of the church meets the soul of the Blues. Hosted by Chicago’s own Brother Jacob, a powerful vocalist, radio host, and cultural advocate, Blues Service is not just a concert, it’s a gathering.

Backed by the Good News Blues Band, Brother Jacob leads a service-style program that weaves together electrifying Blues music, storytelling, special guests, and moments of reflection. Much like a Sunday service, expect moving songs, heartfelt words, a time for offerings, and opportunities for the community to share in the music.

Each Blues Service also includes a moment of honoring three individuals whose contributions, spirit, and dedication help the Blues thrive. This recognition lifts up the people who carry the tradition forward and ensures their stories are celebrated in community.

Blues Service honors the legacy of the Blues, celebrates the people who help it thrive, and invites all to experience its power to uplift, heal, and connect.
