It comes from such a genuine place, a real desire to support art and culture for its own sake. Being involved with them in conjunction with Riot Fest couldn't feel better for us - it's a thick vibe of honest, enthusiastic support for what is clearly Chicago's best festival environment. It's an honor to participate.”
