HOT MIC
“We play what you like”
COVER BAND IN THE CHICAGOLAND AREA: PLAYING YOUR FAVORITE NOSTALGIC SING-ALONG JAMS
90s/2000s, Classic Rock & More
High-energy, feel-good rock. Hot Mic is in the “party-psych” lane, blending groove-driven rhythms, singalong nostalgia, and classic rock punch.
The set lists are eclectic and flow from dance floor ready beats to anthems everyone knows by heart, always throwing in just enough twists to keep things fresh.
