Well hello, Chicago. It’s been a while since you’ve caught my ear. Where have you been for so long? Stephen Paul Smoker is a track I stumbled upon from a Chicago-based, six-piece psych-rock outfit who’ve just released their debut LP, Ripe Fruit. And just to make me all nostalgic for my long lost Chicago days, they’ll be playing a record release show April 27 at the Empty Bottle. (sniff)

An unexpectedly rad tune. I’ll have to check out more of this guy’s music.
