Beyond Hungers Annual Benefit with The Wood BrothersSpecial thanks to WXRT, The Moller Family Foundation, and The Reedy Family Foundation. ​The Wood Brothers musical evolution continues with Heart is the Hero, the bands eighth studio album. Recorded analog to 16-track tape, this latest effort captures their performances in real-time direct from the studio floor with nary a computer in sight.Heart is the Hero is bold, bright, and singularly creative, a fully realized collective effort ultimately greater than the sum of its parts. Perhaps thats to be expected from a group whose willingness to experiment has earned acclaim from Rolling Stone and NPR, as well as an annual touring schedule of sold-out music halls and theaters on both sides of the Atlantic. Ask The Wood Brothers, though, and theyll tell you to expect the unexpected.Proceeds from the two-day concert event will directly benefit over 40,000 individuals Beyond Hunger serves across Chicagoland. Located in the near-west suburbs of Chicago, Beyond Hunger provides hunger relief and essential programming to residents of 13 zip codes, including the West Side of Chicago and many of its surrounding suburbs. Tickets for the 11/17 benefit show at Thalia Hall and 11/18 show at FitzGeralds go on sale 9/29 at 10 AM. For more information go to GoBeyondHunger.org or find us on social media @GoBeyondHunger. A portion of your ticket purchase is tax-deductible, and you will be emailed a tax letter from Beyond Hunger in early December. The Wood Brothers have learned to trust their hearts. For the better part of two decades, theyve cemented their reputation as freethinking songwriters, road warriors, and community builders, creating a catalog of diverse music and a loyal audience whove grown alongside them through the years. Help build a hunger-free community as The Wood Brothers take the stage in Chicago for a two-night benefit concert.
