A Peek at the Popes

ChiTown Popes is a dedicated rock band delivering high-energy performances across northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin. With origins in bands such as ONSET, Black Widow Stew, The Unlikely, DoublePlusGood, and Blame it on Beth, ChiTown Popes offers a musical experience you will not soon forget!

Monica “You name it, she can play it!” Phillip

(Lead Singer and Muscian extraordinaire)

The Voice of the ChiTown Popes, Monica’s vocal talents are among the best of the best. Stage presence and energy – off the charts. But it doesn’t stop there. Harmonica, guitar, keys, drums, and more. You name it, she can play it!

Brian Dullum (Lead Guitar)

Guitar greats like Jimmy Page, Brian May and Stevie Ray Vaughan are known for their “feel.” Add Brian Dullum to the list! While also technically proficient, Brian has killer feel. Brian shreds when needed with classic rock heavyweights and shows the emotion, rhythm, and groove with newer tunes.

Jake “The Snake” Brown (Bass)

No band succeeds without a rock-solid foundation! ChiTown Popes has a religiously solid foundation! Crushing your chest with the low end power and moving your feet within the pocket of dance tunes, “The Snake” slithers in and possesses your soul.

Nate Hoover (Lead Drums)

Powerful rhythm and classic fills, Nate Hoover drives the ChiTown Popemobile to the apex of musical heights! Nate is also a multi-talented musician and plays guitar in addition to drums. AND, wait 'till you hear him sing!

Woody (Rhythm Guitar)

Yep, just Woody! Dr. Silver Pants often gets lost in the audience, bringing the show out into the crowd. Woody has played with the likes of Paul Stanley and Bruce Kulick of KISS, Glenn Hughes of Deep Purple, and Paul Shaffer & the David Letterman Band at such venues as BB King’s in New York’s Times Square.
