Join Adler Art’s Center’s Program Director Ellen Williams on Facebook Live as she sits down for a conversation with musician and recording artist, Ike Reilly.
Ike is from Libertyville and makes punk/folk/blues influenced rock ‘n’ roll records that lean heavily on stories of outsiders with keen details and broad strokes that insinuate a crack in the American dream. Reilly’s band, The Assassination, has been called one of the best live bands in America, and the body of recorded work they have turned out has been poetic, rebellious, wholly original, and critically acclaimed.
Listen in as Ike and Ellen discuss how he started creating, what it is like to be an artist in this time of social and economic unrest, the importance of the arts in communities, and learn more about the start of his family quarantine hour shows that have brought music to so many homes throughout this pandemic.
