Chi-Town
Thursday, August 15
7:30 pm
Chi-Town Transit Authority is an 8-piece Chicago tribute band founded in 2017 and based out of Atlanta, GA dedicated to reproducing the “Chicago” concert experience without any pre-recorded tracks.
​
The key to their success has been knitting together a highly accomplished team of long-time musicians who truly love the music of Chicago. With this foundation, they then pay close attention to detail in recreating the best of Chicago’s songs from studio and live versions and then design a show that first captures the audience, then gets them involved and finally brings down the house. It’s easy to do because the band is having as much fun as the audience is. The band doesn’t lack for large selection of instantly recognizable songs. They are able to choose from the steady stream of Chicago hits starting in the late ‘60s. This allows the band ample opportunity to spotlight each of the three main vocalists as well as showcase a tight horn section and beautifully arranged vocal harmonies.

End of the Line
Saturday, September 7
7:30 pm
End of the Line is the premiere Allman Brothers tribute band. Having carved up the Southeast with sold-out shows in Georgia and Tennessee, End of the Line is making a name for themselves with a sound as classic and heavy as the original brothers themselves. From the authentic, raspy vocal approach of Justin Smith to the chugging drum/percussion train of Chase Bader & Ryan McClanahan, the band both pays homage while pushing the boundaries of the timeless and extensive catalog. Carrying the electric weight of Duane Allman is Conor Kelly and his counterpart Dickey is Adam Gorman, who is the band’s lone masonite. Last, but certainly not least, the low-end duties are vastly covered by Casey Conway, who is a perfect bottom-end sandwich of Berry, Allen, and Oteil. With endorsements from the official Allman Brothers museum The Big House, End of the Line carries on the legacy of the Allman Brothers with poise and power. Come experience the soul, the guitarmony, the jam, and the ramblin’ spirit that still lives on through each note hit.
