Chicago Trio Plaid on Plaid began at Columbia College in 2006. Ann Van Marter, 23 plays lead guitar, and croons through her vocal selections, with time to shine on the drum kit. Kristen Ford, 21 sings (shouts!) plays bass and writes reggae influenced guitar riffs. Buck Foley, 21 plays a driving bass guitar and metal drenched drums.
The band’s 5 song EP, “And then the Fall” will be self released, available free online or sold in exclusive packaging at shows. In the meantime Plaid on Plaid continues to play around Chicago twice a month or more- from established venues like The Empty Bottle and Reggie’s, to loft parties and GLBTQ Fundraisers. No event is too big or small for this music-loving Trio.

Ladies - Your harmonies are sooo tight! I just love your sound!! Kfo, I miss you, lloovvee you, as you know! Need to come to Chji-town to experience POP for myself. Life is good here in the deep south - Spring is popping- my heater is off, and I dig out the spring clothes this w-e. Anyway, just wanted to send my LOVE TO YOU ALL!! Momma jlo
Fuckin' truly amazing show last night. I thought the floor was going to give way with everyone pounding, pounding, pounding. WOR LOFT was wicked cool! Hell yeah.
i hear kfo changed the red couch song. and i also hear you are recording. this means we all need to approve the new version because thats my favorite part. and really, we are all in the band because at some point in time kfo has invited every girl who she has tried to sleep with to be in the band.
This will be our first reviewed show, so we're pulling out all the stops! Plus the other bands we're playing with are awesome! It will be very strange, it will be very anti-hork-mangler-esque and it will also very prevent genital gangrene...
