Last night Canadian rockers Arkells brought about half of Hamilton along with them to Subterranean in Chicago. The packed house rocked and rolled as the band weaved their way through the hits from their 2014 release High Noon like “Leather Jacket,” “11:11,” and “Dirty Blonde.” Most songs ended or began with the eternally grateful Max Kerman offering thanks to the audience for “the best Chicago show” they’ve ever played.

The band is coming back to town for Lollapalooza in July, and now that I’m a little more familiar with them, I highly recommend checking them out if you plan on attending the festival. You can also check out their page for upcoming dates on the west coast.
