Six-piece orchestral pop. A love letter to and from Chicago. Check out our latest video from The Fakeout...

@mrhonorama @Jillhopkins Believe it or not, we're still here! Took a lengthy break due to changes in jobs/homes/families (and COVID), but we'll be practicing together soooon... Appreciate the shout-out regardless!

Our friend Edith Frost 🌬 - who was kind enough to lend her vocals to the Canasta tune "Just a Star" - just released her first new music in fifteen years! Have a listen... https://t.co/PlttoEbAKZ

Thanks for the music, Florian... https://t.co/tGwDG7dGcR

Ok, so we realize that beer is only *kinda* music-related (all is how many times we've been paid in PBR tallboys)... But check out what Ryan and Matt have been up to lately!

Today is the 10th anniversary of CHIRP Radio’s first broadcast! In honor of that I’m shimmying to this classic track by @canastamusic and DJing till 9am at 107.1fm and https://t.co/xVNsllzync

I can’t help thinking he’s chuckling somewhere knowing hundreds of bands with gigs tonight are trying to figure out “an easy Rush song.”

@pitchforkfest This tweet is a year-old, so for 2019, does my 7-yr-old need a Plus+ Pass to enter that area w/ me? (I have my own Plus+ Pass.)

Speaking of "remembering," how about that time we played with @lafourcade at Logan Square Auditorium? She was awesome at that gig and we were thrilled to see her get the chance to perform the (eventual) Oscar-winning tune at tonight's Academy Awards... https://t.co/HtDMxIhWgc

12 hours later and I’m noticing I should have tagged @canastamusic in this. This is what I get for letting Instagram do the tagging automatically. (Also for not checking for 12 hours.) https://t.co/Tdxf5RC9Qu

After 10 yrs vying for an FM frequency, CHIRP Radio 107.1 went live and we were honored to hear "Slow Down Chicago" as the 2nd song played!

[Jennifer Lizak @jlizak]

In this set on 107.1fm @CHIRPRadio: Shilpa Ray, Scotland Yard Gospel Choir and @canastamusic! Reset your preset to 107.1fm now!
