The Effigies with Mono In Stereo at Marys Place

Formed in 1980, The EFFIGIES along with NAKED RAYGUN defined the early Chicago punk sound and scene. They released a string of acclaimed EPs and LPs before disbanding in the late 80s. Resurfacing a few times over the years, the band had just finished recording a new album when singer John Kezdy died in an accident in the summer of 2023.
In 2024 The Effigies are releasing John’s final album “Burned” as well as a 40th anniversary edition of the seminal album “For Ever Grounded” from 1984. The band has no intention of stopping and will continue to play shows and release new music to honor John’s memory and continue the legacy of one of Chicago’s legendary bands.
The Effigies will be at Mary's Place with local punk greats Mono In Stereo! Mono In Stereo hasn't played Mary's Place in years, and you can catch them teamed up with legendary Chicago punks The Effigies, on Saturday, September 28th at 8:30!
