Ethan Tasch

The show was fantastic! Whether it’s acoustic or electric, ET always delivers the goods and leaves the audience wanting more. We heard his latest 2024 song, Good News. He’s a brilliant musician/storyteller. Ethan seemed much more confident and playful than he was at Chicago’s Lincoln Hall last fall. It was his first tour and the venue with rows of folding chairs set up “lecture hall style” made the atmosphere feel stiff and repressive. It probably helped that his sister was in the audience and he had the accompaniment of a band trio backing him up. The Hideout venue is off the Chicago beaten path, but is intimate, friendly and the drinks are cheap. Wide beer selection at $4-$5. There’s a nice outdoor patio in front with picnic tables. I’m looking forward to watch ET’s success explode in the coming years.

Wow what a cute band!! Ethan rocks my socks!!!!

Ethan was great! The Lincoln Hall venue is intimate. I was not thrilled to see the “full lecture hall mode” setup, in Tasch’s words, but it made for a nice respectful audience. Nobody chattering. The sound was great. After hearing Tasch interview, listening to his body of work and seeing his fun videos, I’ve become an instant fan at age 65. I got to chat with Ethan briefly near the merch table where I purchased socks and bought him a drink. I’ll see him again whenever he comes back to Chicago. I expect next visit will be a much larger venue.

ETHAN TASCH!!!!!! watch out for this one he’s blowing up
