Musician Information
West of Chicago is a band performing great songs from the past throughout the Midwest. Our nine-member ensemble, featuring a superb four-piece horn section, offers a tribute to the legendary band Chicago - and much more!


We cover great Motown tunes from artists like Gladys Knight, The Supremes, Stevie Wonder, and many more. On any given night, you can hear us knocking out classic hits like “Mack the Knife,” “These Boots Are Made for Walkin’,” and “Spinning Wheel.” You’ll also hear funk, like The Trampps’ “Disco Inferno,” and early rock hits like “Vehicle” by Chicago’s own Ides of March.


We have assembled some of the finest musical talent in the business, and we all have a passion for the music we’re presenting. If you catch one of our shows, you’ll find yourself dancing, singing along, and enjoying yourself as much as we do!
