Chicago's creative forces for families unite for Future Hits' 2nd Annual Halloween Spectacular! In addition to a full-on rock show by Future Hits, this event offers a chance for families to take a tactile trip and work with their hands on a fun craft before the concert with Kite Collective.
Moira Funbuttons, the host of Chicago's excellent new television show for families Adventure Sandwich, will be the MC and guide us all through a costume contest, dance-off and more. Whole Foods is sponsoring the event and will provide wholesome Halloween treats for all, so don't miss it!
Matt Baron teamed up with Emma Hospelhorn (Hollows, New Millennium Orchestra) and Ben Sutherland (assistant professor of audio arts at Columbia College) to form Future Hits. The band exists as a natural extension of the music Matt started writing for teaching with at Chicago Public Schools. Future Hits recorded their debut album, "Songs for Learning," with Mark Greenberg (Coctails, Wilco, Andrew Bird).
Mister G's got a rockin' new album out, ABC Fiesta! He has a fun new video too. Check it out here then chiIL out and hear him live! For rockin, multicultural fun, it's hard to beat Mister G! Click here for his main site.

"Kid-friendly bilingual rock star.”
— The Washington Post
“¿Quieres bailando? ABC Fiesta is bilingual with a multitude of world rhythms, the songs celebrating both music and reading.”
-- The Boston Globe
¡Hola amigos! Join us for popular, international kids rockstar Mister G's Chicago CD release concert for his new bilingual album, ABC Fiesta. Inspired by his concert tours throughout Latin America and around the US, the collection of original songs brings together several of Mister G's lifelong loves: music, reading and Spanish.
Named on of the "Best Live Bands for Kids and Families," Mister G (Ben Gundersheimer) is a former indie rocker who toured internationally prior to becoming a full-time family musician and teaching artist.
Mister G’s 2012 bilingual CD, Chocolalala, won a Parents’ Choice Gold Award, and his albums have been selected as top children's releases by People magazine, The Washington Post, and Parents magazine.
ABC Fiesta is a one-of-a-kind Latin dance party you won't forget!
Come join hundreds of thousands of kids aged six months to six years, dancing their little booties off (to real disco music!) at some of the coolest clubs in the world while their parents sip cocktails, munch on organic snacks and dance along with their kids. Baby Loves Disco is an afternoon dance party featuring real music spun and mixed by real DJs blending classic disco tunes from the 70s & 80s guaranteed to get those little booties moving and grooving. The fun spills out from all corners of the club: bubble machines, egg shakers, a chill-out room (with tents, books and puzzles), diaper changing stations, a full spread of healthy snacks and dancing…LOTS of dancing.
Tickets are available at www.LincolnHallChicago.com and are $15 for one, $50 for a four-ticket family pack, FREE for non-walkers. If purchasing the four ticket family pack, please note that one ticket will cover entry for four people.

Baby Loves Disco transforms the world’s coolest nightclubs into child-proof discos.
