Cold Waves

Born in 2012, COLD WAVES began as a memorial concert for fallen Chicago musician and sound man Jamie Duffy. The original event, a 14-band affair over a single night, served as a springboard to what is now an annual multi-day showcase at Metro. The effort made that first September evening to raise money for Jamie's family, has now grown into a fundraiser for Darkest Before The Dawn, a local music service industry suicide prevention charity.
