When We Was Kids is a progressive rock band based out of Cicero, IL Their sound incorporates progressive and experimental stylings over post-hardcore base

3 Brothers who started creating music at an early age in Cicero IL just a couple minutes from Chicago. Dad always listened to the classics, in english and spanish. From Def Leppard and Motley Crue, to Soda Stereo and Heroes del Silencio. We grew up on those jams and eventually got into creating our own originals. People always seem to be suprised whenever they hear us live, with their jaws on the floor 😉 With embedded classic rock roots, MACHIN is sure to leave you bobbing your head to the sound of ROCK!

​The Skies Are Shifting is a post-hardcore band centered in the Chicago area that blends styles across the genre with elements of math rock and progressive post hardcore. The band name signifies the ever changing nature of the world and those in it due to the passage of time, for better or worse. This is also reflected in the various songwriting styles as each song pulls the listener through a shifting, multi-layered soundscape of sonic palletes like lush cleans and blistering distortions, that will be sure to thrill any lover of the genre.
