Pencil This In: A Tribute To Kate Bush At The Whistler

By Lisa White in Arts & Entertainment on Sep 3, 2014 5:30PM

We already expressed our sadness for missing out on Kate Bush's first live show in 35 years last month in London, so we feel it is appropriate to console ourselves with fellow fans who couldn't make the transatlantic trek. Thankfully there is plenty of cocktails to drown our tears and an evening of Kate Bush originals and inspired tunes to ease the pain tonight at The Whistler. All the Love: A Tribute to Kate Bush features live sets of Kate Bush covers from Savage Sisters and Kyle Greer as well as DJ sets inspired by Kate Bush as well, including originals, remixes and covers of her popular tunes as well as artists who were inspired by her work. Of course the evening will be accompanied by vintage concert and television footage as well as music videos, keeping the evening all things Kate. Sticking to the theme, a Midnight "Wuthering Heights" dance will take place, where Meagan Fredette will wear white and participate in a mass recreation of Bush's video for her iconic song. A perfectly suitable thing to enjoy at midnight on a weekday through the haze of a few tequila cocktails, one can assume you shall feel free to dance along if the mood strikes.

All the Love: A Tribute to Kate Bush is tonight at The Whistler (2421 N Milwaukee Ave). The evening is free, 21+ and begins at 9 p.m.
