Your Jazz and Blues Weekend in Chicago
The weekend is here and, wouldn’t you know it, it is freezing and there is a chance of snow all weekend long here in the Windy City. Yes, welcome to springtime in Chicago. Still, as I have been positing all winter, there is no better time to visit your local jazz or blues club than during inclement weather. They are nice and crowded, dark and warm…normally.
So, here are the various jazz and blues concerts this weekend. Go enjoy some music before the tax deadline next week. Once again, WDCB helped greatly with this list.
