The following shows go on sale to the public on Thursday, October 4 at noon.All tickets will be available at citywinery.com/chicago.

Conya Doss
Monday, November 12
$25/$28/$32/$35

Conya Doss' voice reflects the sounds of the past, present, as well as what is yet to come, and her musical taste is a mix of genres (classical, soul, blues, etc...). This is apparent in her most recent release CLEAR. With undeviating smoothness, soul, rhythm, and melody, the poised songstress has composed a 13-song compilation of perfectly placed instrumentation intertwined with her smooth vocals, with a hint of rasp.

All of Doss' albums are authentically steeped in the spirit of growth and change and CLEAR does just that. The album focuses on being TRANSPARENT and clearing thoughts to music in order to be better aligned with one's spiritual self.

Tab Benoit
Monday-Tuesday, December 17-18
$35/$38/$45/$48

Louisiana born Blues star Tab Benoit is dedicated to drawing on his Cajun roots to fuel a long-standing discography of back-to-basics blues signatures, earning him several awards in the genre, including a 2006 Grammy® nomination for Best Traditional Blues Album for Brother to the Blues, a collaboration with Louisiana's LeRoux, and multiple Blues Music Awards, including Best Contemporary Blues Male Artist two years in a row and two B.B. King Entertainer of the Year awards. With a career spanning back to nightly impromptu gigs at the Blues Box, a local Louisiana institution, and a record deal with Justice Records, Benoit has produced nearly 20 albums since 1993. Keeping in touch with his home state, Benoit also starred in the IMAX motion picture Hurricane on the Bayou, a documentary about Hurricane Katrina's effects and a call to restore the wetlands.

Musiq Soulchild
Thursday-Friday, January 3-4; 7:30 & 10:00 p.m.
$65/$75/$78/$82

Musiq Soulchild is a hip-hop soul artist with a reputation for being musically gifted, beat boxing for MC's, free styling on the open-mic circuit or just performing acapela for strangers on the streets. Deeply inspired by the R&B/Soul sound of the 70's he uses the name "Soulchild" as a way to show respect and admiration to his biggest musical influences such as Stevie Wonder, Donny Hathaway, Marvin Gaye and many others. After the public was all too ready to stamp the singer as the next big neo soul act following the immense success of his bouncy, omnipresent 2000 debut single "Just Friends (Sunny)" and its powerful follow-up ballad "Love"-which has since become a go-to millennial wedding anthem-Musiq Soulchild flipped the proverbial script. He delivered a gorgeous 2002 cover of the 1968 Beatles' pop-rock classic "Something," showing off an understated range that managed to avoid look-at-me gimmickry.

Musiq Soulchild stands as an UNCOMPROMISING musical force. His 8th studio album and first 24-track double album Feel The Real represents a pivotal chapter in the ever evolving career of an artist who continues to search for new muses and new sounds. Soulchild has received multiple awards including, Billboard, BET, ASCAP, BMI, and Soul Train. He has also earned award nominations from MTV, the American Music Awards, the NAACP, and 13 Grammy nominations.
