Music Events in Chicago

21+ / www.carolspub.comOntario native, Nashville-based singer-songwriter Meghan Patrick is as real as they come. She playfully blends her tough-as-nails exterior with a casual, cool narrative - showing the world that women can be sexy, strong, intimate, and gritty. Whether its composing skillfully crafted songwriting or tearing it up on tour - listeners are invited into her world and very quickly become lifelong fans. A back-to-back CCMA Female Artist of the Year whose accolades also include 19CMAOntario Awards, she has proven that she has what it takes to create music that her fan base adores. With the release of her deeply personal project, Golden Child, she has reached a point where after 8 years in Nashville, she can peel back even more layers and be even more authentic. The album touches on trauma in her past that Meghan is finally ready to release, discuss, and heal from through her music. Of course, Im chasing success in my career, but more and more I am chasing fulfillment and fulfillment doesnt just come from making money and winning awards and having success, Patrick explains. I have had those things and it did not fulfill me in the way I thought it would. She now coins the term, Big Sister Country as a way of sharing advice through her impactful lyrics. A multi-faceted musician from a tender age, her background includes co-founding an all-girl band at age 13, studying opera and jazz, fronting a 10-piece funk act that once opened for Aretha Franklin, and touring extensively as part of a bluegrass group. She names John Prine, Neil Young, and Waylon Jennings as a few of her musical inspirations. There has never been a plan B, determined to foster a creative career and now as this new era of her music is released, she continues to evolve. Golden Child is a testament to her newfound love for herself and the journey, therapy, and self-reflection it took to get to this place. I made this record exactly how I wanted to, I told exactly the story I wanted to tell, I told the truth andwhen you tell the truth, you have nothing to worry about. This clean slate musically and emotionally has allowed her to release the most impactful songs of her career. This event is 21 and over.

Bio: Theres nothing more resonant than the human voice. It contains timbres and textures no other instrument can replicate, but most importantly, its immensely powerful: One voice can spark an uprising, but many voices in unison create a movement. Nya Gazelle Brown, Sabrina Cunningham, and Piya Malik, the three women who front NYC punk-chic, discodelic band Say She She, understand how to wield such power. They soar above irresistible grooves, locking together in gorgeous three-part harmonies that cleverly disguise the feeling of righteous rebellion permeating their music. Theirs is a multi-pronged call to action: Move your body, expand your mind, and recognize your strength.Say She She, whose name pays homage to Nile Rodgers, made Cut s Silver. The bands trajectory has skyrocketed over the past few years, earning praise from The Guardian, the LA Times, MOJO, and NPR, and touring with Thee Sacred Souls. They have performed at venues like the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles and the Roundhouse in London, as well as festivals including Glastonbury, Austin City Limits, and Pickathon. Theyve long mined the sounds of the 70s and 80s, citing Minnie Riperton, Rotary Connection, Liquid Liquid, and ESG as influences. Cut & Rewind expands their scope, incorporating elements of Lonnie Liston Smith and the Lijadu Sisters into their sonic palette while channeling the spirit of contemporaries like Lambrini Girls and Amyl and the Sniffers. It all combines into a psychedelic soundscape of pulsing disco beats, astral whistle tones, and earwormy melodies.Cut s a shimmering, celebratory epic, equally suited for the dancefloor and the demonstration.By Dash Lewis
