Additional Info
FITZGERALDS SIDEBAR Presents:THE HAM COUNCIL
Frank Zappa meets Pee-Wee's Playhouse, add a touch of Hanna-Barbera's Yogi Bear, a dash of heavy metal,
Chuck Mangione(?!), punk, some jazz fusion... what sick mind does that?
We are not a Pink Floyd cover band.
The Ham Council is a 8-piece-non-stop-fun-machine from Chicago, IL. formed in 2012 from a series of Mandy Schmitzel gigs and the compositions of Joe Dorenbos.
A superb group of Chicago musicians who've worked with Garrison Keillor and the Prairie Home Companion band, Howard Levy, Fareed Haque, Tributosaurus, Bill O'Connell's Chicago Skyliners, The Oh Yeahs, just to name a few. A musician and fan favorite!
