What We Say
Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats will take the stage (and blow the roof off!) The Chicago Theatre at the 2016 93XRT Goose Island Big Holiday Concert. The neo-soul Denver-based band has taken the country by storm this year and has quickly become an XRT favorite. The live performances from this potent seven piece band, including three meaty horns, have hailed immense praise from internationally acclaimed festivals: Lollapalooza, Outside Lands, Farm Aide and Austin City Limits. Within minutes you witness their performances as a force of nature blowing away the premiere late night circuit hosts Jimmy Fallon, Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel. Since their self-titled debut released from the legendary Stax Records, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats have knocked out Chicagoans with their extraordinary, foot-stompin’ live shows and thoughtful lyrics, which channels the soul and funk of the American experience. With the album on several best-of lists including Rolling Stone and Entertainment Weekly, the XRT family is honored to bring on one of the most emotive talents to the stage this holiday season!
