What this episode covers
This week we're keeping it all in the Chicagoland family. From the pioneering power pop of Off Broadway, Pezband, Shoes and Material Issue to modern torchbearers like The Spindles, The Rubs, Phil Angotti and The Bishop's Daredevil Stunt Club, we're celebrating one of the greatest local music scenes ever assembled. Of course, no trip through Chicago rock history would be complete without Cheap Trick, but that's just the beginning. We'll travel from the North Shore to the city streets, exploring the sounds that made Chicago a hotbed for power pop, new wave, underground rock and everything in between. If you've ever wondered why Chicago continues to produce some of the finest guitar-pop bands in America, this episode provides the answer. Check out the playlist, turn it up, and spend an hour with some of the best music Chicagoland has ever produced. Let's go!
