CHIRP Radio and New Belgium Brewing are in the midst of locating this year’s bike-for-car swapper who will be crowned later this summer at the Chicago Tour de Fat Festival. This generous soul will give up driving for a year in exchange for a customized bicycle and the chance to live greener and healthier. New Belgium will auction the car, and CHIRP Radio will receive the proceeds! If you’re interested in being considered, go to the New Belgium Car Trader page for more information.
The newest edition of CHIRP’s Factory Sessions is live. This one features Chicago band Whelms, a group made up of the members of Dianogah plus guitarist Tom Fitzgerald of C-Clamp.
