Reggie’s Music Joint, located in the South Loop neighborhood of Chicago, has been a fixture of the city’s live music scene since 1987. Originally a blues club founded by Reginald “Reggie” Jones, it quickly expanded to encompass a diverse range of genres including rock, punk, indie, and hip-hop. The venue is known for its intimate setting – featuring both a larger main room and a smaller, more intimate “Bouncin’ Souls” room – and its support of both established and emerging artists. Over the years it has hosted numerous nationally touring acts as well as local Chicago bands.
