The Elastic Arts Foundation is a super hip music spot in Chicago. It's cool because there's great underground artists / musicians that come through. It's not at all mainstream. Some really good jazz groups, solo acts, string ensembles, and DJ's have played here. Yes that right, I said DJ's. I'm usually against giving DJ's props. But, I've heard a few "musical" DJ's go through The Elastic Arts Foundation. So, defs check the music calendar and keep up with it!
