Norwegian Blue Records held another successful fundraising concert for their upcoming cassette compilation at the Slice, M
arch 7.
While I missed the Dirti Speshuls, Mormon Girls, Junkman’s Choir and the Ruby Plumes, I caught the one local band I really wanted to catch — The Palmers.
Frontman Evan Uschenko, Emma Austin, bassist Kurt Ciesla and Clayton Smith on drums.
They played a very strongly ’60s and ’70s influenced set of mostly original rock and roll music which had a decent sized crowd dancing.
They also included blues classics like “Don’t Judge A Book By It’s Cover.”
The show was to help raise money to release the Norwegian Blue compilation “Windy City Sampler” which feature 14 local bands. It will be released April 15.
