Chicago-based band Bailiff are one of the grittier acts on the indie scene today. The three-piece outfit has a bluesy feel, not unlike The White Stripes or The Black Keys. They're debut album Red Balloon came out recently, and has drawn rave reviews from critics, who have likened the bands sound to everyone from Queens Of The Stone Age to Kings of Leon.

Tonight, the band will be stopping at Mohawk Place in support of the album. Johnny Nobody and Cosmic Showdown will be appearing as well. Anyone in need of a serious blast of old school rock 'n roll should check it out.  Doors open at 7pm with a cover of $5.
