Lizz Wright with Lyric

Wednesday-Thursday, November 1-2

$35/$38/$45/$48

Singer-songwriter Lizz Wright is known for her earthy alto voice and emotive yet straightforward vocal serenades. Growing up in the Pentecostal church, Wright wasn't allowed to listen to popular music. Oddly-or maybe serendipitously-the historic night when she really made the leap from her early musical life to her present one involved putting a "secular" spin on a spiritual. Wright has been the recipient of critical acclaim and ever-increasing audiences since her debut album, Salt, in 2003. She has six albums to date, and her latest, Grace, is set to release September 15.

Tim Reynolds & TR3

Friday, November 3

$25/$28/$32/$35

Tim Reynolds has been playing music all his life. He started as a bass player in a gospel band in his hometown of St. Louis and created his brea- through band in the 80's, TR3. He has recorded and toured with Dave Matthews Band and the Dave Matthews/Tim Reynolds Acoustic Duo. Reynolds has spent the last 8 years on the road as a solo acoustic guitar wizard, playing for packed houses who have come to realize he is not Dave Matthews' side man, but one of the most talented and thoughtful players on the circuit. Now, things have come full circle and TR3 is back again. Their songs range from a mix of updated Tim Reynolds classics to wild covers of everything from James Brown, Bob Marley, Led Zeppelin & Prince T. Reynolds' newer catalogue of material.

He's also an original guitarist of supergroup Trigger Hippy with Joan Osborne and Crowes drummer Steve Gorman. Anders Osborne has toured virtually non-stop, either with his own band, as a solo artist, or as a guest with Toots and The Maytals, Stanton Moore, Derek Trucks, Warren Haynes, Keb Mo, The Grateful Dead's Phil Lesh, Jackie Greene and Karl Denson's Tiny Universe. For Greene and Osborn, impromptu "jamming" is second nature, so they've ditched their bands for some stripped down acoustic performances, each taking a turn with one of their songs with accompaniment from the other.

The Accidentals with Jake Allen

$12/$15/$18/$22

By 14, he had become proficient with a variety of instruments and he solidified his commitment to a life of producing and performing music. Allen has produced several acclaimed solo records, singing and playing every instrument himself. In addition to his solo endeavors, he has toured the U.S. several times with his backing band bringing his lush Studio Productions to life on stage. These live efforts have garnered endorsements from musical gear companies like Takamine, Fender and Gretsch guitars.

$35/$38/$45/$48

Loudon Wainwright III

Wednesday, November 15

$35/$40/$45/$50

Loudon Wainwright III has an illustrious career, highlighted by more than two dozen album releases, a 2010 Grammy Award for Best Traditional Folk Album for High Wide & Handsome: The Charlie Poole Project and two Grammy nominations for Alright and More Love Songs (1986). Wainwright's self-effacing wit and broad humor earned a cult following when he was starting out in the folk clubs of Boston and New York-- and, in 1972, a top 40 hit in the form of the rollicking "Dead Skunk." By the middle of that decade, his reputation as one of the folk-rock scene's true characters had spread far enough that he was tabbed as a recurring character on the CBS series M*A*S*H, on which he portrayed "singing surgeon" Calvin Spaulding. Wainwright penned music for the British theatrical adaptation of the Carl Hiaasen novel Lucky You, composed topical songs for NPR's Morning Edition and All Things Considered and ABC's Nightline, and recorded several songs for the soundtrack of HBO's Boardwalk Empire. As an actor, he has appeared in films directed by Martin Scorsese, Hal Ashby, Christopher Guest, Tim Burton, Cameron Crowe, and Judd Apatow. At City Winery, he makes a solo appearance with a range of material from his four-decade career.

Kandace Springs

Thursday, November 16

$15/$18/$22/$25

Kandace Springs can assimilate multiple musical touchstones and still come off sounding remarkably fresh and unburdened by the past. Springs attracted the attention of Prince, who heard her makeover of Sam Smith's "Stay With Me" on the website Okayplayer. The music icon invited her to perform with him at Paisley Park for the 30th anniversary of Purple Rain. The 27-year-old, Nashville-based singer-songwriter and pianist counts such stylists as Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Nina Simone, Roberta Flack, and Norah Jones as her heroes, but, as evidenced by her sparkling full-length Blue Note Records debut Soul Eyes, Springs mimics none of them.

Loose Ends

Friday, November 17; 7:00 p.m.

$40/$45/$55/$65

The London based R&B outfit, Loose Ends, took America by storm in 1983 following the release of their first album A Little Spice and the #1 single "Hanging On A String (Contemplating)," making Loose Ends the first British band ever to top the U.S. Billboard R&B chart. The group's success was soon followed by several additional urban contemporary hits including "Slow Down", "Watching You", "You Can't Stop The Rain" and " Mr. Bachelor." The group was formed when Royal College of Music alumni, Steve Nichol, who had just finished a world tour with the well-known British rock band The Jam, met singer-songwriter Jane Eugene. The two entered into collaboration, giving birth to their very first single, "In the Sky." With the goal of landing a recording contract, they began to rehearse as a live band along with a third member, Carl McIntosh. The chemistry between the three was instantaneous and they formed the group Loose Ends, and eventually became the first R&B act signed by Virgin UK. Loose Ends returns to City Winery Chicago after a successful show in November 2016.

Mike Doughty performs Soul Coughing's Irresistible Bliss

Saturday, November 18

$28/$30/$32/$35

Mike Doughty returns to City Winery Chicago with the largest band he's ever toured with (a cello/bass player, drums, another guitar player, an organ player, and a backing vocalist), performing Soul Coughing's legendary album Irresistible Bliss in its entirety and Doughty solo songs - but none are ever performed the same way twice. Each show consists of live remixing. Using hand gestures, Doughty improvises changes in what the musicians in the band are doing: stopping, starting, getting louder or quieter, changing their parts, repeating their parts. It's a simplified version of something Doughty saw John Zorn doing with avant-garde jazz in the 1990s, but adapted to be more along the lines of dance music or a hip-hop producer mixing tracks by bringing in the drums, dropping them out, and juggling the musicians like samples.

Chicago Philharmonic Brunch Series

$25/$28/$32/$35

Howard sang with Side Effect until 1982. Howard signed a contract with Atlantic Records in the mid-1980s and recorded her first solo album, Come Share My Love, in 1986. The title track from the album was its first single, hitting the top ten of the R&B charts and reaching number five in late 1986. Howard now has 10 studio albums and has had many top ten hits on the R&B Charts during her 35+ year career as well as a Grammy nomination for Best Traditional R&B Vocal Album for her album Three Wishes.

Joshua Davis

$18/$20/$22/$25

Joshua Davis was raised in the folk tradition: the music, the social movements, the land.

The Verve Pipe

Friday, November 24; 7:30 p.m.

$28/$32/$36/$40

With a reputation for spectacular live performances, the genesis of multi-platinum artist The Verve Pipe can be traced back to the early '90s when the principal members of two rival Michigan bands joined forces. After releasing two independent albums, I've Suffered a Head Injury and Pop Smear, the group quickly garnered a regional following for its textured rock songs distinguished by innovative arrangements, soul-searching lyrics and layered vocals. The success of both albums attracted the attention of RCA Records, which released their platinum major label debut Villains in 1996. The album featured the radio hit 'Photograph' and the #1 single 'The Freshmen,' one of the most successful multi-format tracks of 1997 and winner of an ASCAP Pop Award. Their follow-up release, the critically acclaimed self-titled LP The Verve Pipe, featured 'Hero,' a Top 15 hit at Modern Rock radio. Their most recent album, Parachute, was released this past February. The band continues to tour, performing both rock and kids shows throughout the U.S., including special appearances at Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits Festival, Hangout Music Festival, SummerStage in Central Park and many more.

Johnson as heir apparent to the George Duke and Herbie Hancock style of funky urban groove music. Creatively, Johnson continues to evolve as an artist.
