WICKER PARK — More than 20 retailers and restaurants in Wicker Park and Bucktown will host live music on Saturday during ChillFest.
The neighborhood-wide event is organized by the Wicker Park Bucktown Chamber of Commerce to celebrate Small Business Saturday, an initiative that encourages folks to shop locally at small retailers during the holiday season.
From 2-6 p.m. on Saturday, shoppers will find musicians in area businesses, as well as deals.
According to a news release, participating artists include the ‘90s inspired hip-hop group Hugh Lee and the Pariahs, Chicago’s only burlesque rock and roll band The Fox & The Hounds, multi-instrumentalist Jonathan Fin, plus returning favorites jazz-pop singer Elle Cassaza and singer/comedian Matt Griffo.
