PLAY: The Empty Bottle (IL)

In 1992 the Empty Bottle started out as a cat-ridden hole-in-the-wall bar in Ukrainian Village (just south of Wicker Park) where you could get any one of nine beers for a buck-fifty or less, play pool for 50 cents, and find everything from Monster Magnet to Bill Monroe on the jukebox.

We've done a bunch of shows since then; in fact, we've been anything but empty these last 20 or so years, thanks to the same low prices, lack of attitude, and dedicated regulars that made the original bar such a success.

Availability and open slots change consistently, apply to play and we'll find out a day and time that works best for everyone!

We're looking for Sonicbids artists/bands to join our lineup!

• Bands must be actively playing shows

• Bands must be willing to heavily promote the show if chosen to play

• All acts applying must meet the criteria that we look for, lyrics, stage presence, style and artists must have a fanbase

• Acts must have a solid online presence

• PA provided, bands may need to bring some equipment 
• Bands are able to sell merch on-site
• Compensation TBD at time of booking
