EGi at Kathy’s Pub

EGi returns to Kathy’s Pub to throw down THREE sets of nastiness!

Hailing from the suburbs of Chicago, EGi has a sound that is very difficult to describe. That sound has grown and progressed throughout the years, coinciding with the musicians themselves. This group has pushed the boundaries of classification by focusing on eloquent songwriting alongside intense instrumental compositions while leaving space for epic improvisational journeys.

A staple of EGi has always been the dual lead guitar sound (James Hernandez & Noe Perez), complimenting each other through an understood recognition of space and harmony. The rhythm section (Allan Borukhovich on bass and Drew Littell on drums) provides a driving backbone while keeping the pocket deep and funky throughout each song, stepping up to shine when the moment calls for it. EGi has vividly captured this on their two full length albums Plyatron and Vessel. Due to their steady touring and studio work, this midwest band has a fanbase that has grown to encompass the whole region and steadily spreads throughout the nation.

EGi pulls inspiration from many different sources including Jack Kerouac, Oysterhead, The Simpsons, Outkast, Phil Jackson and the ’96 Chicago Bulls, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Obi-Wan Kenobe, Al Di Meola, Patton Oswalt, Led Zeppelin, Bill Burr, King Crimson, and many more.
