10 years of playing live music at some of the greatest venues Chicago has to offer has really made us into the high-energy, interactive, and extremely comfortable band that we are today. With similar vibes to Sublime and 311, we are bound to get you dancing and grooving to either our own original music, or popular covers of the songs that you already know and love. We play a plethora of covers from well-known bands/artists such as Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Sublime, The Ramones, and many more! We are open to song suggestions as well. We are sure to get the people dancing and singing along as we bring that type of energy to every performance ourselves.
Forged out of the Chicago, Illinois South Suburbs (Tinley Park & Frankfort). Previously known as the band called "Hitsleep". The band has been playing live shows since 2013 and has played some of the most well-known venues the city has to offer including The House of Blues, Lincoln Hall, Bottom Lounge, Double Door (r.i.p.), Elbo Room, etc. The band's former member/lead singer A.J. Skrabis departed the band in 2021 and the lead guitarist/backup vocalist, Hayden Zegley, has since taken over as the lead singer. A new member in Zach Cappos has been added to the band as well to take on the rhythm guitar role. The band is now back in full-force and better than ever playing original music and popular, cover music.
