about

Every summer members of Alewife and their extended musical family gather on the shores of Lake Michigan, 200+ miles North and East of their Chicago haunts, to frolic in the big waves and sunny beaches, guitars and drumsticks in hand. With little time to rehearse, they stage a rather impromptu musical event as schedules permit, relying on a shared database/memory of music from the past five or six decades to fall back on. A two+ hour set devoted to Grateful Dead music is but one of their iterations. A passion? A guilty pleasure? A chance to jam in front of an ecstatic up north audience of cosmic thrill seekers? All of the above.

about

Alewife Oak Park, Illinois

Renowned for their fermented blend of surf/latin/exotica, with a pinch of spice from around this vast global milieu. Heavily extraterrestrial by way of the equator. Music of the jungle. Music of the desert. Music from space.
