I don’t get up to JBTV as often as I’d like. They tape downtown in Chicago, which is great for me, but usually early in the afternoon on weekdays. If I happen to be off that day, I try to go.

After catching their shows at SubT last year (one in the Spring and one in the Autumn), I could not make it to Arkells 2017 Chicago debut opening for Frank Turner at House Of Blues. They’re playing again tonight, but I am unable to make that as well. Luckily, they added a quick afternoon set at JBTV that I was able to attend. They brought … Continue reading Arkells at JBTV Studio 1/23/2017

I couldn’t make that show. So I count myself very lucky to be able to take the trip over to the studio for an even more intimate concert. The set consisted of seven songs, … Continue reading Sarah Jaffe at JBTV Studios
