This episode is a special delivery — highlighting not a rising artists, but a rising collective of music journalists, videographers, photographers and more. REAL ONES is a Chicago force — covering the sound of the city and beyond for the better part of the last 3 years. We had the pleasure of working with Real Ones to present Frank Leone’s debut album release party in Chicago and in New York and had to have them — all eight of them who were in New York — on the show to talk through the community and platform that they’re building.
