Levitation Chicago artist spotlight: Faust

Faust

Legendary German kraut rock band Faust are playing a rare performance at Levitation Chicago on March 12th, closing out the three-day festival.  Faust built a devoted fan base in the 1970’s with their mixture of kraut rock and psychedelic rock before breaking up and disappearing until the 1990’s.  Only two of the original members remain (Werner “Zappi” Diermeier – percussion, Jean-Herve Peron – bass), but this will still be a special set.

Keep your mind open.

Levitation Chicago artist spotlight: Natural Information Society and Bitchin’ Bajas

bitchinbajasJOSHUA ABRAMS NATURAL INFORMATION SOCIETY_2

Natural Information Society is a Chicago jazz collective led by Joshua Abrams.  Bitchin’ Bajas are a Chicago-based kraut-rock band.  They’re two great tastes that taste great together on their collaboration that blends world music funk, jazz, electro, and synth-wave.

It’s nice to see Levitation Chicago bringing in local acts, especially this team-up that should bring a meditative feel to their March 12th performance.

Keep your mind open.
