Founded in 2017 in Chicago, Blind Adam and the Federal League has developed into something of an anti-fascist punk rock family band. Founding members (Blind) Adam Gogola and Alex Simotes turned a handful of Adam’s acoustic demos into what would become the band’s self titled debut LP before playing a single show. By 2019 the band had played all over the midwest on regional tours, small festivals, and as support for Ben Nichols (Lucero), Ever Clear, Bowling for Soup, CJ Ramone, Dog Party, and more.  After several lineup changes and a 7” on A-F Records, the band headed to Pittsburgh to record An Act of Desperation with Chris “2” Barker as producer/engineer. The plan was to release An Act of Desperation in early summer 2020 and spend the year on the road, but plans changed with Covid-19. The band quickly shifted gears to support mutual aid and survival programs, hosting a nine-week livestream series raising over $10,000 for community relief efforts. The band spent 2020 and 2021 in the streets in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter uprisings and mutual aid projects around Chicago.  Setlist: 1. Before it Gets Better 2.

How do you burn the rain? We don't know. What we do know is that when you mix the sounds of grunge, metal, and a little bit of punk, you get Burn The Rain, the three piece live band from the southwestern suburbs of Chicago, formed around records made ala Foo Fighters circa 1995, and Mammoth, influenced by bands such as the aforementioned Foo Fighters, Mammoth, Linkin Park, and Nirvana, (and many more). The consistent members are Joey and Dan, with the best drummers they know, Eli and Michael, on call to provide the thundering beats. No Burn The Rain performance is ever the same, and they have no intention of changing that now.  Setlist: Nothing I Could Do Raegan Killing Me Emily (Cover of My Chemical Romance song)  Social Media: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/burntherain.band/  @burntherain.band Bandcamp: https://burntherain.bandcamp.com/ (contains some releases not on Spotify!) Linktree: https://linktr.ee/burntherain
