Robin West
Robin West is a singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, performer, and music educator. Robin's classical training at the DePaul University School of Music has allowed her to become a master at writing raw, compelling original music, showcased in her debut EP "Hunger Moon", and with her acclaimed single "Houses'', which was released in early 2022. She is currently working on her next album, set to premiere in 2023. Her music is for fans of The National, Foo Fighters, Phoebe Bridgers, and Julien Baker.

Boxcar Band
Boxcar is the St. Louis folk/pop band that showcases the songs of Jorge Valcárcel. Their new album, “St. Louis” highlights their ability to sculpt earworm pop songs that are both catchy and poignant. The two-singer format lets the harmonies shine and choruses soar. Their all original songs sound at once familiar and innovative; and possess the ability to connect to music fans of all ages. Currently, their new singles are being played by independent radio stations across the country. They have played from Hawaii to New York, but this will be their first Chicago show! 
     Selected for the prestigious LoFi Cherokee Music Video Series for their song, “Million Miles Away”, the performance was awarded Honorable Mention by festival producers, and remains one of their top performing videos of all time. KDHX 88.1 FM St. Louis has called Boxcar a “band to watch”. A US Coast Guard veteran himself, Jorge and Boxcar were awarded Certificates of Commendation by the County and City of Los Angeles, CA for their work with Veteran groups. Currently Boxcar is set to release their third full length album this summer 2023.
     Influences include: the Decemberists, Bob Dylan, the Shins, Weird Al Yankovic, Neil Young, The National, R.E.M., Aimee Mann, Wilco, and more.
