Cloud Nothings, a band that originated in Cleveland and found success in Chicago, is celebrating the 10-year anniversary of their album “Here and Nowhere Else.” Initially starting as a solo project by songwriter and guitarist Dylan Baldi, the band transitioned from a more upbeat power pop sound to a gritty postgrunge style with their 2012 album “Attack on Memory,” recorded in Chicago with engineer Steve Albini.
Their 2014 album, “Here and Nowhere Else,” continued this raw and intense sound, with Jayson Gerycz’s powerful drumming providing a solid foundation for Baldi’s raw vocals and energetic guitar riffs. Songs from this album have remained fan favorites over the years, showcasing Baldi’s honest lyrics and infectious melodies.
Cloud Nothings have gone through changes in band members and musical styles since then, but the impact of “Here and Nowhere Else” has endured. The band’s current tour, celebrating this milestone, includes performances at the Empty Bottle in Chicago on November 30th and December 1st. This anniversary is a significant achievement for Baldi, who expressed his gratitude for still being able to create music and perform for fans after a decade.
Joining Cloud Nothings at the Empty Bottle are Armlock and Farmers Wife, creating a lineup that promises energetic and unforgettable performances. Tickets for the shows are priced at $25, and the doors open at 9 PM for this 21+ event.
