The Westerlees live in Chicago

Experience The Westerlees live on June 27th

The Westerlees are scheduled to perform at the Danish Home Of Chicago on June 27, 2026. The Westerlees create music generally described as Americana with strong influences from bluegrass, folk, and old-time traditions. Their sound frequently incorporates close vocal harmonies and instrumental proficiency on instruments like banjo, guitar, and mandolin, often drawing comparisons to artists within the contemporary acoustic music scene.

The Danish Home Of Chicago, located in the Norwood Park neighborhood, has served as a central hub for the Danish-American community since 1928. Originally established as a benevolent society and nursing home, it has evolved over time to offer a range of cultural programs, social activities, and community services aimed at preserving and promoting Danish heritage in the Chicago area. The building itself reflects Scandinavian architectural styles and houses spaces used for events like concerts, festivals celebrating Danish holidays (like Julefest), language classes, and gatherings for members of the Danish Brotherhood and Sisterhood lodges. It functions as both a senior living facility and a cultural center open to the broader public interested in experiencing Danish culture. The venue regularly hosts musical performances alongside its other activities.
