The Kevin Ross experience was phenomenal!!!! Kevin is an amazing performer who can dance,sing and entertain the audience , his love for craft shows. Shout to them girls, the background singers are fire! The audience was comprised of 30-year-olds to 70-year-olds ,all Vibin and having a good time!!! Kevin is the artist with the gift of preserving great R&B music needed in the world today. Francesca playlist played ALL the hits. I really enjoyed the interactive experience. Everything was intentional, and you felt apart of the experience ! I came all the way from Indianapolis and got to hear Kevin sing all the songs I love so much and this made me so happy!!! We met friends from as far away as Dallas, Texas in Chi town to see Kevin Ross! His music unites and brings people from all walks of life together . My husband said look at my baby enjoying herself priceless❤️ I am sorry for the long review, but the experience I had was just that great and I wanted to share all of it, so everyone go and support Kevin!!! I got me some merch and a cute pic with Kevin. It was a Sweet Release. Thank you Kevin!!! Respectfully, Tina Reed🌻

First time seeing them live and in person and it was so much more than I originally expected! The band was so lively and fun, made me chuckle with their bits as well! Got to meet and greet them after the show and it was lovely! Great venue as well, and would definitely see them again if they stop on by for a tour! 🖤🩵🖤

Karla Bonoff was fantastic. Her voice is still superb after all of these years. Her guitar playing, piano playing, story telling, and song writing are all in a class by themselves. Her accompanist, Nina Gerber, complimented Karla's songs with a grace, precision, and beauty that were a wonder to see and hear. This is the 6th time I have seen Ms. Bonoff and Ms. Gerber in concert, and, each time, I always have a huge smile on my face throughout the show. My after glow will be with me all this week. Thank you ladies for a wonderful experience. Note: The City Winery is a nice place to see a show. Good food. An intimate space. And, really, really great sound quality. The sound guy was excellent.

Fred Hammond has made me shout and scream for my LORD for 30+ years. He still has that blessing and it was amazing! I love the intimacy of City Winery despite the close seating. I even found new family because we were in such close quarters. Food was great. Service was great! I hope he will return … I usually see him at huge venues but this was much better. I am, however, excited to see him at Country Club Theatre in June 2026. It won’t be as intimate but I know he will have us holy, glorified and sanging along!

Boney and band sounded great but was disappointed as to how short the show was. Maybe just slightly over an hour for $100 ticket. Felt a little ripped. Took forever to get people through the doors as well. Need a better system. So basically, started late and ended early. Not a good value for sure. Not sure if I’d see Boney again. Though he was good, should have gone a little longer. I think that’s the first concert I’ve been to where the band played less than an hour and a half.

I don’t know why it won’t let me do a complete five stars but I would give it a 10 if I could. I just came back from Chicago today from going to their concert. I live in Portland, Oregon. And that was on my bucket list from when I was growing up in the 70s. They help me get through a lot of hard times from an abusive father. They were so awesome. I ended up getting my shirt autographed and I talk to them about my homemade jerky I make for different people and ask them if they’d like some. They said yes and so I got their numbers to contact them to send it to them so I can’t wait. I hope they like it. That was the best concert I’ve been to and I’m 64 years old.

We enjoyed a wonderful Christmas show brunch with Alicia Witt. She was absolutely lovely and her musical talent is unmatched. Alicia brought her new Christmas album "I Think I'm Spending Christmas With You" to life on the grand piano and put a smile on everyone's face. It was the perfect way to enjoy this holiday season.

This was a great experience in an intimate setting. I am so happy Sixpence has gotten back together! They played some old stuff and some of their new songs. The new EP is fantastic and I can't wait to hear more! Really looking forward to the next time they are around Chicago! The City Winery is a marvelous place to see a show and the service, food, and drinks were exceptional.

Awesome show! Love how they stripped down and reinvented the songs. How they really painted the story of how they happened, how they came to be one the og emo icons that they are. Helps you to appreciate the music that much more. It was wonderful to meet them and be a part of this intimate experience.

Pete was AMAZING! We saw his hysterical performance last year and he topped it this year! I hesitate to give him 5 stars because I don’t want to have to start seeing him at the United center when the world realizes what they are missing. Keep coming back to Chicago Pete!!! I love you!!!

Awesome show! His setlist included a mix of his chart topping songs with a few covers. Just when you think he's killing it on sax he grabs the mic and blows you away with his voice. One of his best shows by far that I have seen. I would give him more stars if I could...He is a must-see!

A NIGHT TO REMEMBER! A special night for me who is an all-time supporter. I had an amazing time with Jor’Dan & his special guest Adia. The atmosphere was on point as far as the show itself. After I had the chance to do a meet & greet with Jor’Dan, I knew I could watch Him perform again.

Always fun see Bob! Took a group of dear friends. Connor McLaren opened and he was really great and his brother joined him on stage for a few songs. Nice acoustic set. Bob was on fire with the creepy Halloween voices and a lively rendition of Blood. Crowd was pumped to hear Jaws. He played a pretty rare encore which included 2 songs. Bullets and Batman. I think it was the first time I’d seen him invite the opener back out to play with him. That was cool and the kid did an awesome job. Some initial guitar troubles and Bob leant him the stinking hand guitar!

The Jukes have been my favorite rock and roll band since 1978 so I'm biased, I'll admit it. My wife and I made a 6-hour journey to see the show and all the time spent travelling was worth it. The concert was the highlight of our trip to Chicago. The band was in fine form; rocking out, playing softly, and everything in between. They played old favorites, new songs and even audience requests. They seemed to be having as much fun on stage as we were in the audience which added to the festive mood. Even when there was equipment problems, they worked with it and kept the show going. And let us not forget Southside's voice; he sounded great. My only regret was that we could not stay for the second show the next night.

We, as always, loved the show. We traveled from MN - we’re lifetime fans and never miss a show locally. We brought our friend from IL and now you have another big fan. Sound was great, venue was awesome, loved the food options. Love you Johnny & the jukes!! See you back in MN at the Dakota!!

No A/C! Shame on you City Winery! We all were sitting like sardines! Tables too close together can’t move . Miki Howard tried to sing her heart out and had to take extra breaks because of the sweating. Her performance was excellent even through the heat ! Her daughter was beautiful and also a great singer!

Absolutely fabulous. Asleep at the Wheel's high energy, excellent musicianship, and soaring harmonies had folks dancing in the aisles. they may have been on the road for more than half a hundred years, but they have honed their performance to perfection. We loved it from start to finish, and they left us wishing for more. Well done.

10000 maniacs featuring Mary Ramsey was excellent. Since it was an anniversary show they did opt to play a "not ready for primetime" song, maybe two. You get the hits, the songs that you have listened to 10000 times on their MTV unplugged album, and possibly one or two more covers than you'd expect. There will be whistfulness.

Great show! While many may have come to hear him play the R&B songs they hear on the radio, I came anticipating his jazz influences. Robert and his band (a trio plus a DJ) did not disappoint. All three are excellent musicians, keenly listening to one another to take their improvisation to the highest heights. The polyrhythms the drummer imposed on top of the songs were amazing. The bassist's style incorporated Flamenco and played a major role in one song where you would have thought there was a guitarist on the stage, but there wasn't. But don't get it mistaken, his grooves was solid. The DJ added an atmospheric element to many songs weaving sounds and effects in and out without being obtrusive. Also, because Robert didn't have with him all the guest artists that sing on his records, the DJ would play samples of the chorus or a key line/lyric of the song, while the band played it as an instrumental. Robert Glasper's playing draws you in. From his rich chordal piano playing to his soaring single note, multi-bar phrases and riffs during his solo, he entertains with his playing as well as the humorous things he'd talk about between songs. But wait, there's more! They even busted out into a 9/8 groove during a solo section, that was funky and suspenseful. Overall, a great show that seemed to go by so quickly even though it was a two hour gig.
