Parlour Magic, Course, NÆ 21+ Saturday, September 12, 2026, 8:30pm 1354 West Wabansia Avenue, Chicago, IL, 60642, US Doors at 8:00pm About Parlour Magic Parlour Magic is a synthpop act from New York City under the direction of producer and media artist Luc Bokor-Smith. The third Parlour Magic studio album, The Embassy, was released on 5 June 2026, and follows Saturn Return (2024) and The Fluid Neon Origami Trick (2020). In addition to his work as Parlour Magic, Bokor-Smith has created numerous large-scale live multimedia installations for public and private clients, a selection of which are available to view at www.luc.fm, and produced, mixed, and engineered for a diverse selection of artists in the United States and abroad. He works out of Flux Studios in Manhattan's East Village. https://www.parlour-magic.com About Course Fusing lush electronic instrumentation with atmospheric, layered vocals, Chicago synth-pop band Course weaves elements of dream-pop, 90s new-wave, alt-electronic, and indie rock into their breezy, ethereal-meets-industrial sound. Fronted by multifaceted lead singer and songwriter Jess Robbins, the group draws inspiration from a broad spectrum that includes Canadian indie-pop act Alvvays and genre-bending favorites Radiohead. After establishing herself as a solo artist with her acclaimed 2018 release Lightfield, Robbins formed Course in 2019, showcasing contributions from a rotating cast of top-tier musicians and friends, most notably background vocalist Jamie Semel and Dan Ingenthron who plays keys and bass. https://coursesounds.com About NÆ NÆ and her co-pilot Blizz deliver cosmic electronic pop with sci-fi storytelling, infectious grooves, and unapologetic fun. Through clever lyrics, sparkling synths, and playful trumpet solos, they celebrate inclusivity, self-expression, and the thrill of rediscovering your inner child. Their performances balance levity and humor with fearless sonic experimentation, turning every stage into an interstellar dance floor. Blending campy aesthetics, performance art, and bold visual props, NÆ and Blizz create high-energy, interactive live shows that captivate and delight audiences. https://www.naemusic.com

Artist bio
Enter the captivating and clever world of NÆ, Chicago-based synth pop and electronic duo. Known for their high-energy live performances with bold visual props and sci-fi narratives, NÆ (JaNae Contag) and her co-pilot Blizz (Ryan Black) ignite their audiences with messages of inclusivity, self-expression, and re-discovering one’s inner child. NÆ’s sharp wit and humor are balanced with levity, imagination, and a cosmic effervescence.

Producer, mixing engineer, and multi-instrumentalist Ryan Black is Contag's core collaborator in the writing and recording process. Black’s production leans into both his sound design experience and jazz influence.

Hot off the heels of their recent performances at Andersonville Midsommarfest in Chicago, the Sound & Vision Synth Series in Rochester, NY, The Performing Arts Series at University of Minnesota Morris, House of Vans Chicago, and The 150 Media Stream in Chicago, NÆ and Blizz are working on the Orbital Ice Cream LP, to be released in 2025.
