RedEye ChiTunes: Bully in the Hallway

A new article of mine on Chicago punk-rock act Bully in the Hallway was published in the Chicago Tribune's RedEye. The quintet pours a variety of styles into their music, which helps them stand out from the ridiculously crowded field of semi-punk bands in Chicago. They have a debut album coming out soon, nine months in the making, while they already have enough songs penned for a second release. Serious songwriting machine. Find the article -- and their song "The Bored" -- at the link below.
