Get ready to groove! Join us on Saturday, August 3 at 7pm for Outside the Spotlight with Chicago’s Alta Vista!

Mixing equal parts jazz, country, and folk, Alta Vista draws on both new and old traditions to create their own “melted country music”. For their first album, the group decided to interpret a collection of century-old songs written by radio musicians and songwriters. Guitarist Chet Zenor, bassist Jakob Heinemann, and percussionist Andy Danstrom use these compositions as springboards for exploration and harmonic embellishment, using rhythm and space to punctuate melodies that evoke both the American West as well as the disparate strands of this country’s homegrown musical traditions.

Best part? Admission is free, but we kindly suggest a $10 donation to support our amazing artists. All ages are welcome, so bring the whole crew! We can’t wait to see you there!
