Greetings! We are doing a little tourette in April with our friends in Mint Mile (of Silkworm, Bottomless Pit, Magnolia Electric Co., etc.) and Milwaukee’s Regal Machines (of Gay Name, etc.) Friday April 25th at the Burlington in Chicago, and Saturday April 26th at ACME Records, Milwaukee. Both shows start at 8pm. I believe the ACME show is all ages.
Milwaukee flyer when we have it!
Our buddy Aadam Jacobs recently made a deal with the fine folks at archive.org to digitize and preserve his massive collection of live shows he has recorded regularly since 1989? One of the first hundred or so out of the vault that was transferred was our show with Bric-A-Brac and Coltrane Motion from Schuba’s in 2014. please enjoy it here:
Additionally, there’s a documentary on the man called Melomaniac that debuted in 2023. Here’s the Trailer:

Greetings! A signal-flare up for the next Small Awesome performance opening Blank Banker’s record release show at the Burlington Bar, Sunday Sept 22nd.
We’re up first, followed by Marquette’s Beatrix, and Kalamazoo’s Petrillo who are touring with Blank Banker for this release run. This’ll be a corker, so make your plans, as I believe tix are cheaper in advance. OK!

Small Awesome plays our maiden voyage at Empty Bottle with our friends Menthol and Dianogah.

It’s presented by the fine folks at CHIRP Radio 107.1FM. The Show is Nov 25th–the Saturday after Thanksgiving, and is 21+, $15, doors at 8:00, we kick it off at 9:00.

Anyway, a FREE afternoon show with some fine fine music coming your way. See your masked faces there.

HI FRIENDS, Unfortunately, due to Covid Delta intersecting our collective orbit, SMALL AWESOME will NOT be traveling KZ MI for what would have been just a lively dang time. We are vaxxed and have negative tests and are healthly personally, but there is just enough going on in the equation that it makes total sense to remove any x-factors.Welcome to the newest state of our currently liminal world! Please continue to support vaccinations, masking and other guidelines that will allow us all to get to a stable plateau. We’ll just keep working on our next record! You will see us in the future.
Best, Small (Jim) Awesome (Faiz)
