For over three decades (yes, really), the Blooze Brothers Band has been one of Chicagoland’s most in-demand show bands. They not only honor the music made by the original Blues Brothers in movies, TV, and recordings, but the spirit in which they played – from Dan Aykroyd’s love of traditional blues, Motown, soul, and R&B to John Belushi’s love of classic rock. Like Aykroyd and Belushi, they fuse those great musical traditions into a stage show that energizes and delights hundreds of thousands of music fans across the greater Chicago area and beyond every year.

With a combination of two high-energy frontmen, a dynamic female lead singer, some of Chicago's top musicians, and a briefcase full of your favorite rhythm & blues, blues, and soul classics, the Blooze Brothers Band provides a musical experience that can't be beat!
