Number Nine
Number Nine is not just a band; it’s a dynamic, rock-and-roll collective. Rooted in the acoustic discipline of the Old Town School of Folk Music, this massive ensemble, featuring up to nine musicians, delivers a sound far bigger than the sum of its parts. Their core sound is built on catchy songs with huge hooks, combining great riffs and multi-part choruses with a stunning array of instrumentation including at times three guitars, piano, flute, mandolin, and keyboard. The whole mix is driven by a unique synthpop overlay and aggressive, pounding drums. With members fluidly switching roles, Number Nine’s primary mission is the live experience, where their sonic density and energy captivates crowds across Chicago.
