Amber Valentine of JUCIFER has redefined the role of the "frontman" in rock. Touring constantly since 2001, she is notorious for her overwhelmingly intense live show, courtesy of her voice, guitar, and 6000 watts of amplification. That's right, six THOUSAND watts. JUCIFER comes to Chicago this weekend for a show with SOUL POWER TRIO, the all-star group based here in the city. The trio's rock credentials are undeniable: lead guitarist Karl E. H. Seigfried has been heard on recordings with members of Hawkwind, Gong, Psychic TV, and Soft Machine; bassist Aaron Getsug plays with Hi-Fi and the Roadburners; drummer Chris Avgerin is a member of Reader favorites Blood of the Tyrant. Throwbacks to an earlier mode of live rock performance, their completely improvised shows answer the question of what it would have sounded like if Jimi Hendrix had been a member of Black Sabbath. Highly recommended.

Get out your dancing shoes and prepare to be whisked away, back to 1975 when Abba topped the charts. Abba Salute has perfected their sound and their show to become an out of this world Abba tribute band. Forget nostalgia – you’ll be having way too much fun dancing and partying the night away as they play all of Abba’s hits from “Mamma Mia” and “Dancing Queen” to “Fernando” and “S.O.S.”
