Finish Up the Summer with the Final Piedmont HealthCare Friday After 5 Concert Featuring Chicago Rewired and REO Survivor & Co.

Chicago Rewired: The Premiere Chicago Tribute Band is a tribute to “Chicago©” – one of the longest running pop/rock groups in history with record sales topping 100,000,000 including 21 top 10 singles, 5 consecutive number one singles, and 5 gold singles. The band comprises a unique blend of talented and seasoned musicians joining forces with the common goal of accurately replicating the timeless music of “Chicago©”- the soundtrack to great memories for so many people.

 The members of Chicago Rewired – The Premier Chicago Tribute Band feel very fortunate to play the music that they love and to share their passion.

Come out to the show, forget about the cares of life for a while, and let the music carry you away.
