WNUR 89.3 FM | Chicago’s Sound Experiment
[Darts & Arrows is a] Chicago quartet that takes folk/pop instrumentals and turns them into improvised explorations.
Instrumental pop music – if such a thing can exist – is rare to hear played live, and played well, rarer still, but MacKay’s compositions are much more nuanced than your typical jamband.'
WNUR 89.3 FM | Chicago’s Sound Experiment
'Broken Things, led by guitarist Bill MacKay, combines
elements of jazz and rock music with downright hummable melodies to
make songs that sound familiar even though you’re hearing them for the
very first time.
