Swedish-American artist Yukimi is the co-founder and vocalist of Grammy-nominated band Little Dragon. Last month, the musician began a new chapter with the release of her debut solo album: 'For You' explores "love, loss, feminine energy and innate resilience" with a fusion of jazz, soul, electronic pop, roots and hip-hop. The artist stops at Chicago's Thalia Hall tonight on her North American tour in support of the album. In a conversation with Vocalo, she said fans can expect a journey through sound and emotion during her show. She also delved into the easiest ("Sad Makeup") and hardest ("Make Me Whole") songs to record on the project and the importance of embracing sadness. This interview originally aired on Vocalo Radio 91.1 FM during Nudia in the Afternoons on Thursday, April 24. It was hosted and produced by Nudia Hernandez. It was edited and mixed by Morgan Ciocca, with production support from Elizabeth Landt. Keep up with us @vocalo on Instagram and @vocalo.radio on TikTok.
Brian Case of FACS returns to Car Con Carne, not long after the release of the band’s incredible 6th album, “Wish Defense,” and before they play Thalia Hall on April 17. We talk about Steve Albini’s role in the recording, as “Wish Defense” was the last thing he worked on before his untimely passing last year. We also talk about the ambiguity of Brian’s lyrics, the cool sounds the band makes, and the fact that they recorded the songs live to tape - holy shit. ## Car Con Carne is sponsored by Easy Automation: easy-automation.net Transform your living space with cutting-edge home automation.

Bruce Lamont is a lifer's lifer and a true embodiment of the fabled midwestern work ethic. His band Yakuza is celebrating its 25th year this Sunday at Thalia Hall with a show that will surely feature selections from their latest (and greatest?) album SUTRA. But that's not all that Bruce has cooking — and Yakuza is far from his only band/project. Oh, no, no, no. If you're new to the world of Bruce Lamont, you've got a lot of fucking listening to do. But fear not! We at The LIFERS Podcast are here to get you up to speed. This week we talk about Dyslexic Apaches, VFW halls, 85 dollar Queensryche shows, Pococurantes, saxophones, car rides with Sanford Parker, bag taxes and syntaxes, bar gigs at SXSW, more Warped Tour misery, and pizza parties with Pantera. As Bruce would say: DO IT!!!

This week, Kate is joined by Katie Gatti Tassin from the podcast beloved by many Beths, @moneywithkatie. This isn't a money episode in terms of how you spend or invest it, but a broader conversation about the weirdness of money, our fascination with it, Kate's personal anxiety about it, the conflicting ways they both feel about capitalism, the ways they've evolved since Girlbossing too close to the sun, while also acknowledging that the way we all were too delighted to watch the Girlboss burn was a problem. Kate airs her grievances about how exploitative online financial content can be or how out of touch the Dave Ramseys of the world can be with their audience, and Katie explains the “hot girl hamster wheel,” aka the immense cost of ongoing maintenance to uphold beauty standards, among other things.

Thirty years later, he's transformed that into the hospitality collective, 16 on Center, which includes a host of music venues and restaurants. Thalia Hall, SPACE, The Salt Shed, Longman & Eagle, Dusek's, Revival Food Hall and much more. We talked with Bruce about his love of music and how this all came about.

Backstage at Thalia Hall in October, R&B-funk-soul band The Main Squeeze sat down to discuss their journey from bars in Bloomington to traveling the world. Lead singer Corey Frye, keyboardist Ben “Smiley” Silverstein and guitarist Max Newman sat down with Vocalo's Nudia Hernandez to discuss how the Squeeze came to be, and how they connect with audiences. The group actually spent several years living in Chicago (after attending University of Indiana), which Frye still refers to as “the best city with the best food in the whole wide world,” but are currently based in Los Angeles. ‘The VibeTape,' a new collaborative album from Smiley's solo project Smile High and The Main Squeeze, is out today on all platforms. The band is on tour, with dates extending into February. This interview was produced and edited by Morgan Ciocca. To learn more about The Main Squeeze, follow them on Instagram @mainsqueezemusic or visit mainsqueezemusic.com

Since Logan was so quick to solve the orgy mystery in episode 156, Josh has brought in another case for the two to solve. It's a classic whodunnit from a store Josh used to work at and a lunch that went missing. There's a vengeful manager, a notorious snacker, and a friend caught in the crossfire. Can our hosts/detectives figure out who stole the lunch? Josh and Logan also talk about jets vs. small planes and write a movie about Aaron Rodgers' injury.

Josh just can't seem to find the right pair of jeans. Or, more accurately, he keeps buying jeans that don't quite fit and hoping they will just improve somehow. But maybe he just gets flustered shopping for clothes because tailors have been mean to him. Who knows? *shrug* Josh and Logan also try something a little different in this episode. They are both reading a book about anxiety and discuss what they're getting out of it and have an in-depth conversation about their fears and mental hangups. Hopefully it's insightful in some way, or at the very least, not super weird. Josh and Logan will be in Chicago at Thalia Hall on November 16th!

Josh had some flights recently so of course there were some mishaps. A plane was delayed due to snacks and another because of plane fender bender. He also waxes poetic about creole food and tries some candy foam (yes, foam. Found here: https://www.nassaucandy.com/candy-foam-2-37oz.html). Then, the mailbag brings some more fan art that Logan demanded and reminds Josh of a negligent birdwatcher. CHICAGO - Josh and Logan will be performing at Thalia Hall on November 16th!

Josh tells Logan about how he first knew his hometown was maybe getting a little...rough. It was mainly around the early 2000's when meth really started popping off. Which led to Josh and his friends running into some very strange characters on a walk. One of whom was having a battle with nature. Josh also talks about some recent subway shenanigans, a dangerous couch, and tells Logan a pun is good. It's a big day for Logan!

We had the pleasure of interviewing Eloise over Zoom video!23-year-old London-based singer-songwriter Eloise releases her debut album Drunk On A Flight via AWAL, available everywhere now!Branching out beyond the soft, jazz-tinged soul of her early work, Drunk On A Flight sees Eloise broadening her horizons and applying her pop nous to a much wider palette of sounds. It is a coming of age album about embracing the moment; a heartbreak record that empowers listeners to luxuriate in their feelings –however messy or complicated they may be. Eloise's timelessness, vulnerability, and whip-smart lyrics effortlessly captivate the attention of listeners.The album's title track and first single, “Drunk On A Flight,” is a breezy pop anthem that puts Eloise's natural songwriting abilities at the forefront, the song tells the tale of a love gone sour. “Giant Feelings” details the complicated, messy emotions that Eloise is trying to confront following the end of her relationship. The accompanying music video, directed by Tess Lafia and shot in one take, sees Eloise lamenting over her past relationship while looking out over the city of Los Angeles and ruefully hoping it rains on her former partner. Eloise shows her cleverness and songwriting prowess in the third single, “Therapist,” a whip-smart, sorry-not-sorry “diss track” skewering emotional codependency with kiss-offs like, “you're acting like a boy but I fell for a man.” As Cool Hunting said, Eloise has a true talent for making “expressive, absorbing pop.” The focus track of the album, “I Take It Back,” circles back to the flight mentioned in the album's opener. It's an upbeat, catchy track that details the back-and-forth emotions of a confusing relationship and Eloise reassuring the subject that in case her plane crashes, she takes back the negative things she's said. The visualizer for the new track provides a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of the new record.The album follows two critically-acclaimed EPs, This Thing Called Living (2019) and Eloise's latest project Somewhere In-Between that The Line of Best Fit notes something only “a deft songwriter could manifest.”On October 7th, Eloise will kick off her North American tour at The Foundry in Philadelphia, PA. The 19-date tour spans across both coasts with stops at The Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles and Thalia Hall in Chicago and will conclude on November 3rd at Webster Hall in New York City.Eloise leaned into her long standing love of pure pop and the sense of liberation she was experiencing being single for the first time in four years as inspiration for the album. She challenged herself to continue writing every single day, quickly amassing a pool of more than 50 songs, from which she assembled Drunk On A Flight with South London producer Conor Albert. The resulting record is a deep dive into the complexities of love and relationships, inspired both by observed experiences and Eloise's own dating history. “Ending a long-term relationship at 23, you feel such a loss of time and adolescence and that can make you so frustrated,” she explains. “What have I learned from all of this? And what am I stuck with at the end of all of this? My songwriting has always been honest, but this feels raw –like I'm exploring all the shades of emotion.”We want to hear from you!

The Cool Kids are an American hip hop duo combining the talents of Sir Michael Rocks and Chuck Inglish. For more than a decade, they have been cutting a unique path through the world of rap, releasing groundbreaking albums and delivering unforgettable performances. They're now set to take it to another level with an event they are calling Night School, which will be taking place at Thalia Hall on September 24th. It will feature a dinner curated by Chuck Inglish & Chef Ben Trusdell of Dusek's, a live Mystery School Podcast recording hosted by Sir Michael Rocks and Owen Bones, and a cameo stuff performance by The Cool Kids themselves in which they will be performing their latest three-part album, Before Shit Got Weird. Features Co-Director Mick R. caught up with the dynamic duo to talk about the concepts and inspirations behind their new album and Night School, and where the guys believe their project is headed next. Stream Before Shit Got Weird on Spotify. Tickets to Night School are available through Thalia Hall. "In a way, [Night School] turns the concert concept upside down a little bit. I think that gives more room for us as curators to do what we do best. Because I think that's the era that we're able to step into now. We're at a point right now where [The Cool Kids] have been curating so much through music and through fashion and through our own tastes and interests that now we need to bring those tastes and interests and bring that curatorial spirit into how we present our shows and tours." - Sir Michael Rocks Production by Mick R.

This week, Features contributor Lee Gomez speaks with Nathan Williams of Wavves at their Chicago stop at Thalia Hall for their postponed-due-to-COVID 10-year anniversary tour for their third album, King of the Beach. They reminisce on the creation and songwriting on the album, the late and great Snacks the cat from the album's artwork, releasing b-sides from the album on Wavves' Patreon, and 40oz preferences. "At the time I remember being a little bit nervous; those things get to you, having never having the attention or people writing or talking about me really. [...] And so people, I felt like, kinda wanted me to fail. But no, I don't think I'd change anything. I think that it ended up being exactly what it was supposed to be." - Nathan Williams Produced by DJ Ninja Photo Credit: Jesse Lirola
