Faded Places is the product of years in the Milwaukee music scene, deep science, and happenstance. Comprised of songwriters, tradesmen and engineers.
The result is a hard working rock band with wide ranging vocals and musical styles influenced by classic rock, punk, and electronic jam cultures.
Rock ‘n’ roll road-warriors North by North wear their midwestern charm on their sleeve. All artwork is beautifully designed by the band to compliment their heavily textured blend of ’70s psychedelia and lo-fi pop-infused garage rock. Much of the work helps guide listeners through narratives and secrets buried in their music.
Their latest release, Last Days of Magic, is a Stephen King-inspired, femme-fatale-filled concept album that investigates the space where science-fiction and mysticism meet modern society.
And while Chicago will always be home, North by North has set out on the life-adventure of The Never-Ending Tour–performing over 300 shows since early 2017. Along the way, North by North have had the fantastic opportunity to share stages with bands such as Eagles of Death Metal, Tegan & Sara, Sheer Mag, The Pack A.D., and more.
