You can never go wrong with steak - especially when it's surrounded by Hollywood Casino, and topped with generous portions of great music! That's where I come in - fill your ears with songs, fill your belly with beef, and empty your pockets in the slots. Nice night, huh?

A CAPPELLA

  CHICAGO VOICE EXCHANGE
A cappella vocals, five men

Chicago Voice Exchange (CVX) has been entertaining and confusing audiences since 1991.  Our mix of a cappella, rock and roll, jazz, and comedy won us the Midwest Harmony Sweepstakes three times in a row.  CVX has performed the National Anthem at Cubs and Sox games, and we have recorded three CDs, including "Live From Paris" (which is neither).  From corporate to school events, from low-brow to high-brow (and even uni-brow), our rambunctiousness and self-deprecating humor leave a trail of smiles and broken dishes wherever we go.

Next public performance:
Lincolnwood Public Library
4000 W. Pratt Ave., Lincolnwood, IL
Sunday, March 17th, 2013
2:00 pm
