CHICAGO REWIRED
The Premier Chicago Tribute Band
Chicago Rewired brings the unmistakable sound of Chicago to the stage with the powerful vocals, signature horn arrangements and musicianship that made the legendary band one of the most successful and enduring groups in popular music.
Founded in Charlotte, North Carolina, in 2015 by drummer Mike Graci, Chicago Rewired began with a clear goal: to assemble the musicians needed to faithfully perform a catalog that is as musically demanding as it is instantly recognizable. The result is an eight-piece band of seasoned musicians who recreate the distinctive combination of rock, jazz, horns and harmony that has defined Chicago’s music for generations.
With a full horn section, multiple vocalists and accomplished musicianship throughout the band, Chicago Rewired captures both the power and precision of the original arrangements while bringing the energy of a live Chicago concert to the stage.
THE SONGS
25 or 6 to 4 • Saturday in the Park • Beginnings • Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is? • Make Me Smile • Colour My World • If You Leave Me Now • You’re the Inspiration • Hard to Say I’m Sorry • Hard Habit to Break • Look Away
From the horn-driven excitement of “25 or 6 to 4” and “Saturday in the Park” to ballads including “If You Leave Me Now” and “You’re the Inspiration,” Chicago Rewired takes audiences through decades of songs that became part of the soundtrack of American popular music.
The band performs nationally at theatres, performing arts centers, casinos, festivals and concert series, earning enthusiastic responses from audiences and presenters alike.
“They were so good that after a 20-minute encore, the audience still wanted more!”
— The Dunn Center
For longtime Chicago fans—and audiences who simply love great songs, great horns and great musicianship—Chicago Rewired delivers an evening filled with music they know from the very first note.
