About this event

About Music Under The Trees Series:

Join us on the lawn this summer for two more nights of live music! Our summer concert series is on the front lawn of the Dole and offers a magical and relaxing evening under a canopy of oak trees and twinkling lights. Grab your picnic blanket and lawn chairs (or let us do it for you), your BFF's or significant other and kick back and enjoy the music, sing-a-long or dance the night away.

Not in the mood to pack snacks? We've got you covered - order ahead and we'll serve you dinner! Stay tuned for the menu options for the August 18th show.

Once you've picked your spot on the lawn, head on over to the bar to indulge in one of our signature drinks, a bottle of wine, or that night's beer of choice.

*Gates open at 5:30pm. Outside food is allowed, however outside alcohol is prohibited.

About the August 18th Concert: Jimmy’s mission is to expose the next generation to the blues. Jimmy excites crowds with his electrifying guitar work, fresh harp, clever lyrics and animated stage theatrics. His high energy blues and rock-n-roll captivate audiences, and forge instant fans. He has headlined at Buddy Guy’s Legends, and B.L.U.E.S on Halstead. He was featured on the WGN Morning News, and has opened for the legendary Eddie Shaw, Bobby Rush, Toronzo Canon, Dick Dale, The Mike Wheeler Band and performed at SXSW.

Jimmy Nick has also shared the stage with John Mayall, Ted Nugent, Samantha Fish, Pat Travers, Savoy Brown, Los Lonely Boys, Gov’t Mule, Kenny Wayne Shepard and more.

You don't need to drive all the way to Chicago for great blues, just come over the lawn at The Dole. We've got you covered close to home. Enjoy a swanky night under the trees and stars as Jimmy and Chicago Musician friends take the stage at Music Under the Trees.
