Vocalist Jamie O’Reilly
with John Erickson on piano
Special guest reader Judi Heikes
Chief O’Neill’s Pub
Wednesday, October 16 at 8:00 PM, vocalist Jamie O’Reilly returns to Chief O’Neill’s glorious pub, in an evening of songs and stories celebrating Chicago’s vibrant immigrant population.
Jamie reflects on forty years in her beloved city, with tales of its neighborhoods, and stories of her Irish and German ancestors and others: artists, writers, and feisty activists, who were part of Chicago’s Literary Renaissance, and free speech movement, around the turn-of-the last century, into and following the first world war. Lore from and about Studs Terkel (a friend of Jamie’s). Songs showcase Jamie’s signature soprano, she sings songbird-style ballads, romantic standards, sultry gypsy ballads, Celtic folksongs, parlor songs, Americana ballads, and songs written for and by her. Jamie will be accompanied by John Erickson on piano. Judi Heikes narrates. She and Jamie read selections from Gwendolyn Brooks, Carl Sandburg, Willa Cather, and others. Listen to a sample here. Love’s Sweet Song. Jamie with John Erickson, piano.
