Jack Klatt - Caught In The Middle

Listen/purchase: Ramblin' Kind by Jack Klatt

“Joy unleashed spreads like a prairie fire...“

Over the summer, I wrote a gay Western noir (if that wasn’t a thing before, it is now) about a bartender and a gambler. I was playing with contrasting types-- the bartender has set up a life in his hometown, and the gambler has made a point of never staying in one place too long. Listening to this song, it hit me that either character could be singing it to the other, or switching verses, and either way it hits like a ton of bricks. So, in honor of Gus Kelley and Casey Floyd...

Americana lore, comedy, and the dream of the Nineties.

8/14: Parker Millsap, FitzGerald’s

We previewed the Oklahoma singer-songwriter’s show at Lincoln Hall last summer and subsequent appearance on Live From Here with Chris Thile. He returns to the Chicago area with a year’s experience of touring his latest album Other Arrangements, plus a recorded cover of Sly & The Family Stone’s “Everyday People”.

Singer-songwriter Jack Klatt opens.

8/14: Spektral Quartet + LJ White feat. the music of The Shaggs, Constellation

Tonight at Constellation, as part of their Once More, With Feeling! series, local string group Spektral Quartet plays The Shaggs’ “My Pal Foot Foot” as reimagined by composer LJ White. (They’ll be playing with a disassembled drum kit in addition to their usual instruments.) As is consistent with the series, the Quartet and White will participate in a Q+A session and then perform the piece again.

8/15: Leslie Jones, Vic Theatre

SNL star and Ghostbuster Leslie Jones delivers a stand-up set in advance of the release of The Angry Birds Movie 2 (supposed to be conspicuously better than the first one) and her upcoming 2020 Netflix special.

Comedian Lenny Marcus opens.

8/15: Jupiter & Okwess, Millennium Park

Jupiter Bokondji’s genre-bending collective Jupiter & Okwess project headlines Millennium Park tomorrow night. Their last album was 2017′s great Kin Sonic, which featured collaborations with Damon Albarn, Warren Ellis, and Massive Attack’s Robert del Naja. Earlier this year, they released a new song, the buoyant and percussive “Kwe Ngienda”. The song begins with layered drums and chanting before introducing sharp rhythm guitars and airy lead tones.

Mauritanian griot, singer, songwriter, and instrumentalist Noura Mint Seymali opens.

8/15: Smashing Pumpkins, Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, & AFI, Hollywood Casino Amphitheatre

I’m not sure any setlist could top the last time we saw Smashing Pumpkins, a tour consisting almost exclusively of songs from the first five albums. Now that they’ve released their new record, the set won’t be as satisfying, even more so because they’ll be playing more post-MACHINA material, but it will be worth seeing because the original lineup sounds so damn good live.

Opening are Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, the musically talented brother’s band that thankfully tends to play some Oasis songs and Beatles covers, and California emo stalwarts AFI, who haven’t topped Sing the Sorrow and tend to play nothing from before it. Don’t worry: “Girl’s Not Grey”’s in there.
