Chicago-based metalheads have a new festival to look forward to, with the inaugural Heavy Chicago fest set to take place across two weekends on October 28th and November 4th and 5th at the Avondale Music Hall.
The first night (October 28th) will be headlined by hometown heroes and cult doom legends Trouble, who will make their live return after a five-year hiatus. They’ll be joined on the bill by Acid King, Bongzilla, and Chicago locals Novembers Doom.
