Noted for throaty, yearning vocals that accompany his swimmy indie soul-pop, Yellow Days is the performance alias of British musician George van den Broek. After some early releases during his teenage years, he began to gain traction with 2017's full-length "Is Everything Okay in Your World?" Switching locales to Los Angeles, his follow-up, "A Day in a Yellow Beat", appeared in 2020. Two years later, the pandemic-inspired EP trilogy "Slow Dance & Romance", "Apple Pie", and "Inner Peace" was steeped in psychedelic soul.

Ric Wilson, Chicago's second-best live act in 2019, brings hip-hop with an intelligent twist. His funky rap, infused with disco influences, stimulates both body and mind with powerful percussion and cheerful arrangements. Wilson has opened for major names and graced festivals such as Pitchfork and Rolling Loud. As he prepares for his debut album, he continues to dance through life with sharp emotional clarity.
