Last week, popular Chicago punk-scene pug Chloe died at age 13. She was a constant presence on the long-running music and culture podcast Better Yet, whose host, Tim Crisp, frequently photographed Chloe alongside his interviewees. If you’re plugged into the local punk and rock scenes, chances are you’ve seen pics of Chloe relaxing on a couch with the likes of Kelly Hogan, Touche Amore’s Jeremy Bolm, Lala Lala’s Lillie West, Piebald’s Travis Shettel, Stef Chura, Eleventh Dream Day’s Rick Rizzo, and Laura Stevenson. “Chloe was a magnet of cheer. She loved meeting people and wowing them with her mile-wide smile and snorts,” says Crisp. “I can only be grateful to have loved her and to have that love returned so deeply.” RIP Chloe—you were a good dog.
- One of the performers at Fck Cncr Fest, singer-songwriter Jennifer Hall, released a video for her song “In the Water” in October.
