What defines Chicago’s sound today

Chicago are known as a rock and pop band with prominent brass arrangements, blending guitar-driven songs with trumpet, trombone and saxophone lines. Their classic material from the late 1960s and 1970s mixed jazz harmony with rock structures, and that fusion still shapes how the band presents its catalog live.

Key works such as the debut Chicago Transit Authority, the ballad-heavy Chicago X era and later releases like Chicago XXXVIII: Born for This Moment give the group a wide repertoire. The latter, issued in July 2022 via BMG, marked their first album of original material since 2014 and has supplied newer songs to sit alongside the long-established hits in recent setlists.

Where Chicago stand and what’s next

Chicago’s next announced live date after the reference point of September 3, 2026 is September 4, 2026, when they perform with Styx at Toyota Pavilion at Concord in Concord, California as part of The Windy Cities Tour, with further North American shows following through November.
