Music scene · Hickory Hills

Hickory Hills is a southwest suburban community where music has centered on school concerts, parish choirs, and backyard parties. Its proximity to Chicago means residents often head into the city for bigger performances while keeping local traditions modest.

Expect live music at local bars and restaurants with acoustic nights, plus seasonal events at park district facilities. The high school auditorium hosts the most polished local productions.

Local and regional artists perform here, with musicians from the nearby Chicago scene occasionally passing through.

Check the park district newsletter and parish bulletin for performance opportunities. Build a setlist of covers for restaurant gigs, and travel into Chicago for original-music showcases.
