Songs About Chicago

By Carles on 29 Sep 2007

Chicago is a mecca of everything that is hipsterdom. Located in the middle of the country, it is a city worth writing a song about. Some people love New York, others love LA. Chicago may or may not be a city worth loving, too. If you are a band, you will stop there, though. They have a scene for every one.

If you are driving to Chicago for Pitchfork Music Festival next summer, maybe you should put these songs on your mix.
