Chris Darby pointed me to a really excellent article about the singer-songwriter night he hosts at Phyllis' Musical Inn that was posted on www.examiner.com. The article is a review of sorts from October's show, which included both Longsleeves and Chris' band, Them Damn Kids.

Definitely check out the article, it's a really great fly-on-the-wall perspective of one of the coolest nights happening in music right now in Wicker Park and more over in the entire city of Chicago.

Behind this night, pulling the strings is Chris Darby, one of the founders of the band Them Damn Kids and one of the people in Chicago that has the wonderful foresight to understand how important friendship and collaboration is among young musicians. Traveling all around the country, Chris seems to collect promising talent and bring them together for shows and to let them find support in each other like not many other can.

Phylli's Musical Inn rarely disappoints with any manner of music they bring in, and Singer Songwriter Night is especially an evening not to miss. They provide a valuable service and a voice to very talented musicians and the night comes around every few months. Gentlemen, don't let this be the last.
