Night Two:

Ben Lamar Gay & Macie Stewart duo

Macie Stewart ensemble

She maybe the most prolific Chicago musician, Macie Stewart is a songwriter, arranger, performer who has quietly been a powerhouse behind the scenes. Stewart is a sought-after collaborator performing and recording with Jeff Tweedy, Mannequin Pussy, and Makaya McCraven. Macie’s own projects like her solo songwriting work, her improvised and creative music groups (often with partner Lia Kohl & Whitney Johnson), and the art rock band Finom have gathered accolades from around the country for this city. In January, Macie will be spending the small window of time she has in town to set up every week in our cozy Tavern. In addition to collaborating alongside some of the best talent in the city, she’ll be performing four unique solo or duo sets of her own projects.
