Chicago are one of America’s most legendary bands of their generation: and for good reason so. Formed in 1967 by a group of horn-loving musicians from DePaul University, the band flipped rock music on its head by blending jazz, soul, and big brass into a sound nobody had heard before. Originally known as “The Big Thing” and later “Chicago Transit Authority,” their debut album launched a brand-new era of horn-forward rock brilliance. With classics like “25 or 6 to 4,” “Saturday in the Park,” “Beginnings,” and “Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?,” they built a catalog that belongs in the Great American Songbook. And then the ‘80s came — and Chicago became unstoppable. “If You Leave Me Now,” “Hard to Say I’m Sorry,” “You’re the Inspiration,” “Look Away”? All global smashes.

Six decades, 100+ million records sold, 21 Top 10 singles, Grammy wins, and 38 (!) albums later — Chicago continues to prove that they are one of the greats and can go one for decades more: and best of them all, we get to see them at their second peak! Me you and the crew - right here in the crowd! 

So - y’all ready, New Hampshire? We HOPE so. See you on July 25th - right here for the best night of the summer.
