Songwriter Showcase with Shelly Steffens, Donny Mahlmeister and Brian Sulpizio

Shelly Steffens and Donny Mahlmeister of A Tundra and Brian J Sulpizio of Health&Beauty will be our featured songwriters at our Songwriter Showcase and Open Mic.

Steffens crafts modern rock songs rooted in Chicago’s post-rock tradition. She finds ways to make the awkward sound lyrical and the unpredictable seem obvious while keeping the listener on his toes with unconventional arrangements and melodies.

Sulpizio’s songs are often driven by a plucked guitar that dances over the beat. With influences that span modern jazz, Afrobeat and contemporary indie-rock, Sulizio distills his tastes into a focus and expressive style that incorporates improvisation.

Ten x Ten is both a compilation and collaboration between Chicago bands and printmakers. The project strives to introduce artists and musicians that might not have otherwise crossed paths, and encourages the development of creative relationships between Chicago bands and printmakers that go beyond show posters. The final package consists of ten songs accompanied by ten corresponding prints that were developed exclusively for the project.
