Organizer’s description

FITZGERALDS SONGWRITER CIRCLE: HOSTED BY TERRY WHITE W/ SPECIAL GUESTS: Rick Sherry and Jon Williams FREE SHOW! Click "Book Now" to rsvp Terry White's career as a musician can be traced back to his childhood in Oak Park, IL, just outside of Chicago, where he began teaching himself guitar as an adolescent (and played in the requisite talent show/school dance/house party band after graduating high school), but really took root in Carbondale, IL, where he attended Southern Illinois University and formed a band with Phil Bayer, Kevin James and Chris Obren after graduation. That band, Modern Day Saints, recorded a slew of original music and, in 1989, moved to Los Angeles to sell it all to the highest bidder. The band lost Obren to fatherhood but gained new drummer Rob Pierce and enjoyed a rabid LA following as regulars on the legendary Sunset Strip. After a long residency at the Whisky-a-Go-Go, Modern Day Saints broke up in 1992. You Won't Have a Home is a collection of songs written over the last four years. It began in 2021 when White, Paul Bivans (drums), Andon Davis (guitar), Michael Krayniak (bass) and Chris Neville (organ) met at Joyride Studios, owned by engineer Blaise Barton (who sadly passed away on June 12, 2025), in Chicago. The songs that comprise You Won't Have a Home were recorded one at a time, with as few overdubs as possible, to maintain a "live in-studio" sound.
