Some three weeks after the excellent music festival ended, I’ve compiled a list of bands to check out based on my three days in Chicago’s Union Park. Luckily, good music is timeless.
If you like: Big, dumb garage rock, complete with shouted titles and Ramones-esque buzzsawing
Check out: Jay Reatard (or, as I always preface it in my head, the unfortunately named Jay Reatard
If you like: Mellow guitar runs and beautiful multi-part harmonies, a la the Dead or CSN
Check out: The Fleet Foxes
