- Additional Info: FITZGERALDS PRESENTS:BRIAN KRUMM AND HIS BARFLY FRIENDSA favorite band of Fitzgeralds, Brian Krumm and His Barfly Friends is a project led by Brian Krumm, front man for Chicagos Americana-noir group The Great Crusades. The bands debut album, Just Fade Away, was recorded with members of his regular band as well as a whos who of Chicago music scene notables, with Crusader Christian Moder producing. Just Fade Away was released by Chicagos Pravda Records in June 2023. Influences like Robyn Hitchcock, the Jayhawks, Warren Zevon, and Dylan shine through all the material on Just Fade Away with Krumms storytelling at the forefront. The single City That Care Forgot, an ode to New Orleans, debuted on Pravda Records in May 2025. The lineup of the Barfly Friends includes Jessie Hotaling (vocals), Brian Hunt (bass), Brian Leach (guitars, keyboards, vocals), Krumm, and Christian Moder (drums, vocals), with a rotating cast of special guests from the Chicago music scene sitting in frequently. This is a gorgeous record, where the songs that hit hardest, that insinuate themselves as open questions, change by the day, but each one seems to send down deeper roots, and come up with more historypersonal, social, mythicalevery time you play it.Greil Marcus (Rolling Stone, Creem, Village Voice) For more info: briankrumm.com FREE SHOW!
