5th son, Chicago native, soulful voice, dark melodic songs, inspire, break your heart. From 'All & All' that sounds Elliott Smith inspired and 'Whiskey Misery' that channels a simple blend of Nick Drake and Radiohead, Aimont Moon seems to wear his heart on his sleeve. Lyrically, his fearlessness, openness and introspective mindset gives you a hard truth and warmth about the duality of life and mind. Paired with the warm, melodic and harmonic major/minor progressions sets the foundation for the soulful vocals to set the tone of pain, redemption, love and reality in these songs. There's a darkness and a light in the music of Aimont Moon.

Charlie Otto has been a Chicago favorite for 15 years. The founder of the cult darlings This Must be the Band and DJ noDJ, he’s sold out venues around the United States, and has had the honor of playing alongside many amazingly talented people including some of his musical idols, like Umphrey’s McGee and members of King Crimson and Smashing Pumpkins. “charlie otto + his gear” is his first solo project, running on the cutting edge of both music and video performance, spontaneously letting the music he's playing generate what you see on the screen. The technology to connect the sound and visuals to this degree is only recently being developed, and with the help of video guru DRMBT, Charlie experiments and pushes this tech forward every show. The songs are not experiments though, they’re fully developed SONGS. The lyrics and chords are gushing with feeling, the drums are throbbing, the synths are huge, it’s very electronic while still achieving rock and roll status – probably because most of it is controlled by Charlie’s multi-guitar. Although the entire show is danceable, don’t be surprised if there are times you’re glued to where you stand and your jaw stays open. Either way, it’s something that you’ll have to talk about later. Since 2020, Charlie and his gear have been playing shows big and tiny all over the country, from two consecutive years at Summer Camp Music Festival to a brewery tour of SW United States. He's always thrilled to do what he loves best, and thankful for the music fans that make that possible.
