Market Days: Boyfriend

Backlot Bash presents songwriter, producer and performer, Boyfriend, on The New Orleans Stage at Halsted & Belmont on Saturday, Aug. 12 at 5:30 p.m.

A festival darling (“Bonnaroo’s Best Find” – Bob Lefsetz, “Top 10 Performances of Outside Lands” – Rolling Stone), Boyfriend is perhaps best known for her over-the-top live show.

The 41st annual Northalsted Market Days, which is organized by the Northalsted Business Alliance, runs Saturday, Aug. 12 and Sunday Aug. 13 from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. along N. Halsted St. from Addison St. south to Belmont Ave.

A $20 suggested donation is recommended. Donations support local nonprofits and fund community projects like the Chicago Pride Crosswalks. A $50 VIP Pass with express entry is available for purchase at northalsted.com.
