Chris Shuttleworth Chicago Quartet

Sunday, September 1st, 2024, 10:00PM – Dingo’s (formerly Beer Brats & Beats)

With a sound born in Chicago’s jazz scene and grounded in an unabashed search for beauty and melody, this quartet bridges the Windy City and the Pacific Northwest, creating something unified that is both entirely fresh and completely approachable.

Tasting notes: lush, highwire, visceral
