Event Description:
Chicago-born singer-songwriter Dan Tedesco is a solo folk-grunge hurricane, transforming guitar, effects, and raw musicianship into a genre-defying live experience. His recordings weave intricate layers of jazz, prog, metal, lo-fi, and classic singer-songwriter sensibilities into rich, immersive soundscapes, while his solo performances distill that complexity into explosive, intimate moments of pure musical invention.
Drawing inspiration from Dylan, Neil Young, and Tom Petty, and earning comparisons to contemporary artists like Waxahatchee and MJ Lenderman, Tedesco bridges tradition and experimentation. On stage, every performance is unpredictable—moving from delicate introspection to powerful, distorted textures, all through a single guitar and a mastery of effects. Whether on record or in the live setting, his music invites listeners into a sonic universe where folk, grunge, jazz, and rock collide in exhilarating ways.
