Chicago’s Smoking Popes have announced the Midwest Simmerfest: a roving, three night mini-tour/mini-fest that will see the bands go from St. Louis to Chicago, with a stop in Milwaukee in-between.
Joining the Popes for the event will be Minnesota stalwarts Off With Their Heads, along with Limbeck and The Color Fred.
Check out the poster below and, underneath, bespoke ticket links for each night.
