Attention record-hungry Chicago: The Whistler is your new favorite place on Wednesday nights.

The Logan Square bar will begin a new series next month called, “50 FREE RECORDS.”

For the month of February, the first 50 patrons to enter The Whistler will receive a free release from the Whistler Records catalogue, which includes funky experimentalists SHAPERS, the warming powers of In Tall Buildings, prehistoric button-mashers White Mystery and much more.

Additionally in the coming months, The Whistler will also be featuring exclusive releases from our beloved local labels and bands in the giveaway.

The free record-hysteria begins on Wednesday, February 2, at 6 p.m. at The Whistler, located at 2421 N. Milwaukee Ave., but remember you have to be one of the first 50 patrons in the bar. So, better hurry. But please, walk carefully. It’s icy out there.
