PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT: OAD Goes to Millennium Park – Summer Music is POSTPONED until NEXT Monday, July 1st due to projected storms!

Well, the weather has indeed thwarted our fun. With projected storms early this evening, we are going to be rescheduling tonight's planned event in Millennium Park to see Chucho Valdes.

We are rescheduling our event to next Monday, July 1st and we'll see some other fantastic music together if you can make it!


Our first summer event, although postponed due to rainy weather, will be a trip to Millennium Park for the Summer Music Series on July 1st. Join us to listen to some great music:

Car Seat Headrest

Car Seat Headrest began as a solo project of Will Toledo and now includes Andrew Katz (drums), Ethan Ives (guitar) and Seth Dalby (bass). The band, whose music transverses various genres under the “indie” label including lo-fi, electronic and pop rock, recently released a re-recorded, re-imagined edition of its classic Twin Fantasy.

Naked Giants

Rock band Naked Giants is comprised of vocalist and guitarist Grant Mullen, bassist and vocalist Gianni Aiello and drummer Henry LaVallee. Their debut studio album SLUFF was released last year to positive critical reviews. The band has toured with Car Seat Headrest since 2018.
