Live Music: Uncle Pigeon

  • Une Année Brewery & Kitchen 6343 West Gross Point Road Niles, IL, 60714 United States (map)

Uncle Pigeon is a Chicago-based quartet led by songwriters Joey Acopiado (Lead Guitar/Vocals) and Karl Kirkpatrick (Guitar/Vocals), featuring also the performances of Phin Gleber (Drums) and Henry Carpender (Bass).

  The desire to create a unique fusion of Alternative and Americana is at the heart of the project, and so it's fortunate that each of the birds come from a wildly eclectic musical background.  From Radiohead to the Allman Brothers Band, a diverse span of influences serve the sound of Uncle Pigeon — and the result is something truly all their own.  From short and sweet uptempo pieces to longer poetic and emotional ballads, a set by Uncle Pigeon contains a diverse range of passionate compositional tones.

    The tunes are brought to life by a group of four who all sing, all contribute their heart on an instrument of choice, and most of all: have a deep longing to present meaningful songs with a fire.
