Local musicians take the stage several nights a week. This is a great spot to sip expertly crafted cocktails while enjoying some of Chicago's finest sounds. Great spot for Jazz, though no stranger to the occasional singer-songwriter or DJ. Monday nights are reserved for "The Whistler Jam" where a rhythm section backs up the open mic, and Jazz artists are welcome to step up.
