Two Gallants Ring in MLK Day in Chicago

Walking into Lincoln Hall for the Two Gallants show last Sunday, the door guy informed us that it “might be crowded in there.” Easily grabbing a table on the second floor, I thought maybe the door guy was high… until Two Gallants took the stage.

Moonface and Spencer Krug at Lincoln Hall

With the small crowd gathered inside of Lincoln Hall last Wednesday, the evening became more of an intimate evening with Spencer Krug and friends.  The small group of concert-goers that clung anxiously to the stage, awaiting the arrival of a indie-fan favorite were taken into a melodious dream-sequence.  Each song melted into one another with [...]
