There’s a new Mayor in the city of Chicago these days, so some of my Chicago-themed tunes needed updates. Unfortunately, the more things change, the more they stay the same. I really only had to swap out Mayor Daley and replace him with Mayor Rahm Emanuel. The first three songs were featured prominently in Mark Konkol’s DNAinfo Chicago article from May 19, 2014. “I Got Dibs” was featured in Mark’s article from February 7, 2015.

This is a collection of songs inspired-by and written-in the city of Chicago. If you live in Chicago then it’s required, by law, that you own this album. If not, then it’s still probably a good idea because you may know someone who is from Chicago, or you may even someday visit Chicago.
