CHICAGO — Although temperatures might be falling, tons of live music might be heating up Chicago venues throughout the month of November.
From smaller acts to artists who could refill arenas, listed below are ten of the very best.
11/1 – Soccer Mommy, Metro
Soccer Mommy, aka Sophie Allison from Nashville, has been steadily releasing great albums since her debut “Clean” in 2018.
She recently scored a podcast called “We Were Three” by the Recent York Times that focuses on family life through the COVID-19 pandemic.
Listen in: Cool (official music video)
11/2 – Michigander, Lincoln Hall
Michigander, aka Jason Singer, has had a rough last couple of months after his wife was recently hit by a automotive on her strategy to work. In September, Singer broke his leg, delaying his EP.
Hopefully a rocking Chicago crowd at Lincoln Hall will cheer Singer, who’s great live, up.
Listen in: East Chicago, IN (live)
11/5 – Carly Rae Jepsen, Aragon
Chances are you’ll know her from “Call Me Perhaps” however the Canadian pop singer has put out three albums since 2012’s “Kiss.” She’s visiting Aragon, her first Chicago appearance since 2019, off the discharge of “The Loneliest Time” — which got here out Friday.
Listen in: I Really Like You
11/5 – Smashing Pumpkins and Jane’s Addiction, United Center
Following the Highland Park parade shooting, Billy Corgan hosted a profit show at his tea shop and old friend Perry Farrell, who was on the town for Lollapalooza, joined him.
Unfortunately, the Jane’s Addiction frontman suffered a recent injury while acting at Madison Square Garden. Jane’s is taking off the following few shows but Farrell hopes to be higher by their Nov. 5 date with hometown favorites Smashing Pumpkins.
Listen in: Thirty-Three by Smashing Pumpkins, Been Caught Stealing by Jane’s Addiction
11/10 – Just Mustard, Empty Bottle
Within the streaming era, it’s hard to give you a more relatable hook than belting out, “I watch TV to go to sleep!” in 2019’s “Frank.”
It’s easy to see why The Cure picked the Irish band to open up for them in 2019.
Listen in: Frank (official music video)
11/15 – Dave Matthews Band, United Center
Whether a guilty pleasure or not, it’s unattainable to disclaim the musical ability of Dave Matthews Band. They haven’t released an album since 2018, but Dave recently told outlets in August that a “great” latest record is on the best way.
Listen in: #41 (live in 2009)
11/16 – Steve Vai, Copernicus Center
Sometimes after a tough day at work or school, you could just need your face melted off by three-minute guitar solos. Not significantly better options than a master who has been voted the tenth best guitarist of all-time by Guitar World.
You possibly can catch Steve Vai on the Corpernicus Center in Jefferson Park.
Listen in: For the Love of God
11/23 – Cloud Nothings, Empty Bottle
If modern indie rock was an individual they might have the opportunity to order a drink at a bar. Because of this, increasingly artists are playing anniversary tours of their iconic albums.
Enter Cleveland’s Cloud Nothings, who’ve been darlings of the post-hardcore indie scene for over a decade. They’ll bring 2012’s excellent “Attack on Memory” to their fifth appearance at Empty Bottle.
Listen in: Wasted Days (14 minute performance on KEXP)
11/25 – Lupe Fiasco and Louis The Child, Radius
It’s a full local show at the brand new venue Radius in Pilsen. Legendary rapper Lupe Fiasco might be joining the EDM group Louis The Child, who hail from the North Shore.
Hopefully you’ll be lucky enough to listen to Lupe play among the finest Chicago lines to open an album ever — “I’m from the town within the Midwest, best city in the entire wide-wide world.”
Listen in: Kick Push by Lupe Fiasco
11/26 – Saba, Metro
Fresh off a European tour, Saba, from the West Side, is appropriately back in Chicago as a part of his “Back Home” tour.
He’s still playing dates supporting his excellent February release “Few Good Things.”
