The SLO ‘MO Spectacular : A soulful holiday shindig benefiting Project Fierce

With Chicago's ever increasing roster of parties, bars and events around the city, it can be difficult to find a one-of-a-kind experience that'll keep you coming back. But Slo 'Mo, a once monthly dance party curated and created by Kristen Kaza definitely goes beyond expectation. This Saturday, she, along with The Inconvenience's Isaac Ike Holter and their resident lady on the decks Tess Kisner, will throw a winter spectacular to benefit Project Firece. I got to chat with the party purveyor herself via email about Chicago, music and Slo 'Mo earlier today.

Pat Gilroy & The Super Happy Fun Club of Chicago!

Recently, I caught up with musician and longtime friend of ours Pat Gilroy. He has definitely accomplished a lot since I’ve last spoken to him. Pat has a new band called The Super Happy Fun Club, with an upcoming tour and a recently released album titled “Go Fun Yourself.” The Super Happy Fun Club started out as six friends who’ve always partied together, but never played for the same band. Now, they’re like the Chicago super group; comprised of members from Lucky Boys Confusion, Treaty of Paris, The Waiting Game, Logan Square, One Life, and Close Enough. The Super Happy Fan Club is an alternative rock group, heavily influenced by their experiences in their previous bands. They’ve come together to create a unique sound of their own, having had no idea that their just-for-fun activity of writing tunes together would turn into something this big.
