Your guide to the Lincoln Park and surrounding neighborhoods.
Join us for a Soul-filled night at the Colvin House, as Nikki O’Neill and her band celebrate the release of her new album, Stories I Only Tell My Friends (Blackbird Record Label) with a special show!
Deeply in love with classic soul, rhythm & blues and gospel from an early age, music journalists have called Nikki O’Neill “an expressive, nuanced singer and excellent guitarist” who makes albums with songs that demonstrate “a remarkable sense of melody.”
Stories I Only Tell My Friends is supported by the Illinois Arts Council, who chose O’Neill as one of their Creative Catalyst Grant recipients for 2025. You can get your vinyl or CD copy at the show, and have it signed by the band.
Nikki O’Neill: vocals, guitar
Chris Corsale: guitar, harmony vocals
Teddy Myers: keyboards
Andy Mirsberger: bass, harmony vocals
Rich Lackowski: drums, harmony vocals
