Sun Beard is a rootsy and rockin collection of Chicago artists from bands we all know and love in the local and regional club and festival scene. With a focus on songwriting influenced by the likes of Neil Young, Bob Dylan, John Lennon, Wilco and more, the songs set the scene for pedal to the floor guitar solos and extended grooves. Sun Beard features members of Old Shoe, Family Groove Company, Cornmeal, and Backyard Tire Fire.
Casey McGrath will open the night with FiddleRock! her take on songs you love but with just her violin.
