Cornmeal

"For over 20 years of weathered storms, personal changes, and bountiful life events, one thing has always remained; The Music.After more than 20 years on the road, Cornmeal continues its tradition of explosive live shows and sophisticated, captivatingly fun originals. Assembling a lineup of some of Chicago most venerable musicians, Cornmeal’s late stage reinvention is breathing new life into the band and its performances. Be sure not to miss them as the head out for a few select shows coming in 2022.A nationally recognized live music institution, Cornmeal is heavily influenced by American roots and folk music and seamlessly blends lightning fast tempos and impeccable harmonies into an unrivaled live performance that continues to expand upon the five-piece acoustic-electric groups’ vast musical repertoire. While steeped in the tradition of the past, Cornmeal continues to forge a path all their own, pushing the boundaries of bluegrass, Americana and folk for a whole new generation of music lovers. With a growing fan base and ever-evolving sound, Cornmeal challenges the recipe of bluegrass and live performance.After many false starts the long awaited studio album, Slow Street, was released May 29th, 2015. The new record featured 10 original tracks and a host of guests musicians including Anders Beck of Greensky Bluegrass on dobro. Recorded in Chicago the album clocks in at over 60 minutes of acoustic/electric landscapes and improvised jams. Balancing the energy and feel of a their one of a kind live shows with the articulation and precision of studio production, Slow Street is an album that was well worth waiting for.With songs like Rise Above and All Things Must Change, the album pays homage to the last few years of change with a complex maturity well beyond anything we have seen from the band since their last studio release, Feet First, back in 2006. WIth masterful musicianship, a deep understanding of melody and time, and a more focused sound, Slow Street runs the gamut of the Americana sound with everything from light and delicate to gritty, deep and psychedelic.”
