Who We Are

The Vintage Plugs — four guys in a basement rehearsal space

Basement sessions · Chicago, IL

The Vintage Plugs are a classic rock and alternative cover band based in the Chicago area. Four guys who've been around long enough to love the songs that earned it — CCR, Johnny Cash, Pearl Jam, Pixies, The Doors, Velvet Underground, and more.

We keep things loose, fun, and loud enough to fill a room without rattling the neighbors' windows. Whether it's a bar night, a backyard party, a block party, or a private event, we bring the songs you already know by heart and play them like we mean it. We're also working on original material when we get a spare hour between everyone's actual lives.

Available for hire throughout Chicago and the suburbs this summer. No rider, no drama — just a classic rock cover band that shows up and delivers.
