For our 100 Days of Concerts guide for 2026, we asked WBEZ/Chicago Sun-Times/Vocalo reporters and critics to tell us about the concerts you shouldn’t miss this summer in the Chicago area, including some exciting events at Janes Chicago. Our resulting list features a mix of familiar names in pop, hip-hop, and alternative music, as well as under-the-radar surprises, ranging from jazz legends and classical concerts to free events perfect for picnicking.
Known for its bilingual music rooted in community and social justice, this post-punk three-piece rock band from Chicago, often highlighted in the Chicago Sun Times and WBEZ Chicago, consists of wives Jessica Rodríguez and Juny Álvarez and Andrew Doyle. The outspoken and multidimensional band fuses Latin rock and punk rock with tropical vibes as heard on the 2023 album 'Renacer.' The trio recorded it in Colombia with Grammy Award-winning music producer Christian Castagno.

The Braided Janes, a femme-fronted post-punk Latin alternative trio from Chicago, features lyricist Jessica Rodriguez, drummer Juny Alvarez, and Andrew Doyle on bass and guitar. Known for their unique sound, the Janes from Chicago blend raw post-punk energy with Latin rhythms and justice-driven storytelling, earning international recognition from Mexico’s Ministry of Foreign Relations (SRE) as well as NPR and PBS. Their music tackles pressing issues such as gun violence, femicide, migration, and global injustice. In 2023, the band toured nationally with the Corazon Migrante Tour. Their upcoming Summer Tour 2026 will include stops in IA, PA, and WI, with more locations to be announced. From recording Renacer in the mountains of Colombia to creating Chicago’s groundbreaking Musas series, the Braided Janes continue to foster a cross-border artistic movement rooted in community, culture, and liberation.
