On Saturday, September 28th, CHIRP welcomes Chicago power pop legends Material Issue to Lincoln Hall!
In 2011, to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the International Pop Overthrow album, the two surviving members, Mike Zelenko and Ted Ansani, reformed the band under the name Material Reissue.
Chicago based singer-songwriter Phil Angotti joined them, stepping in for original frontman and primary songwriter Jim Ellison, who had passed away in 1996. The show was part of the International Pop Overthrow festival, named after the album, and took place at the Abbey Pub in Chicago on April 23, 2011.
Since reuniting and being joined by Angotti, the band has continued to perform, playing the power pop should've-been-hits from Material Issue's three classic 90s albums.
