Way back in 2012 in our 2nd ever CME Session we featured a little Chicago indie rock outfit called Minor Characters (https://www.facebook.com/minorcharacters)
Long before Shelby Pollard became the Mayor (or Master of Jazz) of Chicago Music Exchange, he was a member of said band.
Many years have come to pass and tonight, at Chicago's Sleeping Village (https://sleeping-village.com/) Minor Characters will play their LAST SHOW!!! The CME Crew will all be there to wish a fond farewell to one of our FAMILY BANDS! Hope to see you all there!
CME CLASSIC
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the second installment of our "Sessions" series we invited one of our favorite bands, Chicago's very own Minor Characters, in to pick out their dream instruments and play a few songs. Here they perform "Burden" inside Chicago Music Exchange's beautiful showroom after they handpick their favorite instruments right off the wall. Enjoy the live performance and check them out on Facebook to learn more about the band. https://www.facebook.com/minorcharacters.
