This week on the ChicagoVerseUniteD audio podcast: Chandler Lass and Eva Dubovoy of Young Wonder!

Stream or download that podcast below, followed by two Young Wonder clips, including the band’s Krewella-centric episode.

Kids These Days

Given the act’s prolific video output and live performance schedule this year, one has to wonder when the members of Kids These Days find time to sleep. Keeping in line with the group’s high profile summer is the announcement that the young outfit will perform as one of many local bands at The Hideout Block Party next month on September 24th. The band just last week played a set at a different type of local event, The Magnificent Mile Shopping Festival. Bucketfeet and Young Wonder both provide a look at the fest, immediately following the group’s recent CVU Lollapalooza podcast.

And speaking of Lollapalooza, KTD materials from that event continue to surface, with the group’s FM News 101.1 interview with journalist Janine Schaults directly below, followed by a look at the act’s post-Lolla Hard Rock Cafe performance.

Next, and much like Hey Champ, the group is featured on two installments of MGTV, which stands for Music Garage TV. Watch both chapters in that video series below.

Finally, last and certainly not least, is impressive live video of the group’s Macie Stewart mere days ago at The Bucktown Arts Festival, courtesy of Elephilms.
