On Saturday, March 11th, 2023, music fans gathered at Subterranean to see rising pop-rock group Meet Me @ The Altar, fresh off the release of their debut album Past//Present//Future. Opening acts Daisy Grenade and Young Culture started off the night with energetic performances and engaged the crowd throughout their sets. Meet Me @ The Altar's infectious energy was undeniable and contagious. From start to finish, MM@TA delivered an electrifying performance that left the crowd wanting more. Their catchy hooks and relatable lyrics to songs such as "Say It (To My Face)" and "Garden" had the crowd jumping and dancing throughout their set. The energy in the room was palpable as the band delivered hit after hit from their new album and previous releases. MM@TA's show was their first headlining performance in Chicago, and due to the fact that it was completely sold out, I am sure that it will not be their last.

State Champs stopped at Chicago, IL’s Concord Music Hall on November 18th on their kings of the New Age tour accompanied by Young Culture, Between You & Me, and Hunny.
The night started off with some dancy rock music from Young Culture. The New York based band played a variety of songs old and new. Chicago is listed as Young Culture’s top listeners on Spotify; so, it makes sense that the crowd was screaming lyrics back and moving around all throughout their set. Young Culture’s captivating performance set the bar high for the rest of the night. The crowd was packed by the end of the last two alternative rock bands Between You & Me and Hunny. The crowd was steadily moving and singing along. There was even a little bit of crowd surfing going on.
By the time State Champs was ready to start, the room was packed with excitement. As they took the stage, cheers echoed from all throughout the room. The band opened with their most recent album Kings of the New Age’s track “Just Sound.” They continued their set with a variety of pop-punk songs old and new. When Derek, lead vocals, stated they were about to play “Elevated” off of The Finer Things he also announced that the band will be doing a 10-year anniversary tour for that album next year. Since the start of their set fans were moshing and crowd surfing and they didn't let down for the remainder of the night.
