BIG RED & THE BOYS to Appear Live in Chicago!

For that special mix of naughty and nice, Big Red and the Boys presents a non-traditional evening of songs, stories and spirits starring Meghan "Big Red" Murphy, John Francisco, Patrick Andrews, TJ Chernick and Nick Davio. Big Red and the Boys is a celebration of chosen family that has already become an annual tradition for Chicagoans looking to escape the typical holiday drudgery.

Big Red opens her living room to you, sharing holiday stories and humor, toasting the New Year and serenading the audience with song stylings from Irving Berlin standards to original works to some funked-up Destiny's Child. Grab a drink at the bar and get to know the people next to you at what's bound to become your new home for the holidays!

Big Red and the Boys are also headed out on a three-city tour. Check them out in Chicago-12/10 & 12/11, Philly-12/16, and NYC-12/18.

"Meghan (Big Red) is the most versatile and organic vocalist in Chicago. There's not a genre she can't sing and make it sound as if the song wasn't written expressly for her. So many singers can be put into categories, "pop singer," "cabaret singer," "rock singer," but Meghan covers every genre her vocal chords take on and does it seamlessly." -Windy City Times

"Meghan Murphy has the pipes and personality that has entertained crowds for years. If you haven't seen 'Big Red' take over a room yet, what are you waiting for?"-Windy City Times.
