Parked On A Snow Route On The Gig Poster Of The Week

This week’s gig poster was created for a livestream concert by a famous Chicago-born jazz musician who’s recently returned home. Singer Kurt Elling and his family lived for 12 years in New York City but moved back to Chicago over the summer (as he told the Tribune’s Howard Reich, his family had long thought about taking that step, but the timing worked out this year). Earlier this fall, Elling played a run of livestream dates at the Green Mill, a home away from home for him for many years, and this week he followed it up with a holiday-themed show broadcast live from the club. He shared a video excerpt from a September performance on his YouTube page, which should give you an idea what the experience was like.
