Music
Show: Shapers “Shapers stepped onto the Chicago scene fully loaded. Their debut as a live band was just this past fall, and now they’re self-releasing their first album, Little, Big*,” writes Jessica Hopper, “a sweet heap of artful krautrock (Neu! and Cluster are clear influences) with occasional fitful vocals, and its nine songs cover an interstellar range.”
9 PM, Hideout, 1354 W. Wabansia, 773-227-4433 or 866-468-3401, $5.
Dinner: The Southern‘s slightly refined Dixie-inspired fare in a casual bar setting is a good platform for chef Cary Taylor’s talents. One of three new Chicago restaurants reviewed this week.
