Pine Valley Cosmonauts’ new album, “The Closing Time,” is a song-for-song recreation of Tom Waits’ debut album, “Closing Time.” “Patron saint of Chicago music” Jon Langford returns to Car Con Carne to preview the album, and its release show at the Hideout (happening on 7/17). All ticket proceeds from the release show benefit Chicago Independent Venue League (CIVIL) to help secure the future of Chicago’s independently owned live music venues.

Car Con Carne is sponsored by Siren Records McHenry
