16th Edition of Chicago's Favorite Winter Festival, Tomorrow Never Knows, Begins January 15th

It’s officially time for Chicagoans to prep for their favorite winter festival, Tomorrow Never Knows (TNK).

Starting next Wednesday, January 15th, the five day takeover of 5 Chicago independent venues begins. Lincoln Hall, Schubas, Metro, Hideout Inn, and Sleeping Village will collectively host over 40 different acts, including out-of-town, headliners Taylor McFerrin, N0V3L, Black Marble and many more. Since the first wave of this year’s lineup announced back in October, a number of additional artists have been added to each TNK bill.

While we’re looking forward to the neighboring acts coming into town, as well as the inclusion of comedy shows within the fest, one aspect of the TNK we particularly love is the showcasing of our city’s local talent. Headliners like Lala Lala, NNAMDÏ & Sen Morimoto (who SOLD OUT their Sleeping Village show), Paul Cherry, Resavoir, and supporting acts like Slow Pulp, Varsity, V.V. Lightbody, Born Days, Wyatt Waddell, Luke Titus, and DJ Heather are among the plethora of Chicago artists featured on TNK’s bill.
