Hi everyone!
We hope your summer days are action-packed in the best possible way. Below find the latest and greatest from East Garfield Park.
With Gratitude,
Team BandWith
Tennessee Takeover
BandWith’s 3rd Annual Performance Tour was glorious. In Memphis, we performed at the National Civil Rights Museum at the Lorraine Motel, the Overton Bandshell (site of Elvil’s first gig) and Stax Records, and in Nashville, we played Church Street Park and CMA Fest, getting a clear glimpse of what BandWith is all about in the course of one weekend. We’re very grateful for the support that allows this annual trip to happen and for the warm welcome we received on the road.
Thanks for the good times, Tennessee! You've got us officially hooked, wondering - where to next year ??
Summer Program in Full Swing
Summer is cooking in Chicago, and we’re in the mix! BandWith was pumped for the chance to perform at NASCAR - we brought the heat as always. As part of our Visiting Artists series, West Side’s very own DLOW stopped by to give a very inspiring Dance class last week. Our Choir will be performing at the Department of Transportation conference on Aug 30 to help liven up the logistics conversation! Lastly, we've been invited to do our thing at LOLLAPALOOZA on August 1st from 3-4pm at the Buckingham Fountain!! Needless to say, we’re enjoying our summer!
Up Next
Our Building Project pushes on and we are zeroing in on a Groundbreaking date this fall. Stay tuned!!!
