9 pm, $5, 21+

Dubbed “rock n’ roll classicists” and “an eclectic synthesis of psychedelic grunge and classic rock” by Chicago press, Model Stranger’s sound and unique look has pleased rock and roll purists, indie rock fans, and casual listeners all the same. Their variety of sonic influences covers ground of which fans have described as ranging from Tom Petty and Pearl Jam to David Bowie and Muse.
Model Stranger recently wrapped up touring in support of their latest release The Changing Score, now available for streaming and purchase . While traces of the energy and excitement captured on their debut release remain, The Changing Score takes travel down additional avenues from the genres of Classic Rock and Grunge. An EP showcasing the “Stranger” side of their palette will follow later this year.

More About Model Stranger…

After the band’s debut release in 2010 Dreams & Bones charted on CMJ stations the band hit the road playing over 150 shows in their first 18 months together. Amidst regional touring Model Stranger spent the following two years in and out of the studio working on songs and additional material for their follow up release.

Taking less of a live approach into the studio yielded exciting results as the band made a point to explore a more “Model” side of their musical sensibilities on their 2013 release, The Changing Score. An EP showcasing the “Stranger” side of their palette is scheduled to follow later this year.

Model Stranger – made up of Stephen Francis (vocals/guitar), Kevin James (Bass) and Vincent Joseph (Drums) is the epitome of a DIY band. This rock trio has worked the Midwest scene very diligently with an impressive list of successful regional tours. In addition to sharing the stage with popular national acts such as Candlebox, Our Lady Peace, Local H, Neon Trees and Ours, Model Stranger has performed at famous Midwest clubs such as; The Metro, Congress Theater, Double Door, Radio Radio and Cubby Bear. Notable festival appearances include Taste of Chicago , Taste of Linclon, Oranje Indy, Guinness Oysterfest and I AM Fest.
