The Flat Five Chicago

Debut album "It's a World of Love and Hope" out now! Alex Hall, Kelly Hogan, Scott Ligon, Casey McDonough, Nora O'Connor Kean -- separately, these folks are in-demand touring and recording musicians for bands like Neko Case, The Decemberists, NRBQ, Jakob Dylan, Mavis Staples, Andrew Bird, J.D. McPherson, Robbie Fulks, Wanda Jackson, The Mekons, The New Pornographers, Alejandro Escovedo, and many more -- but collectively they are The FLAT FIVE Chicago -- five talented individuals who play together for the fun of it -- for the sheer joy of exploring all kinds of vocal music. Hopeless harmony junkies, all of 'em.
