JRock Chicago

JRock Chicago is focused on spreading the news of upcoming local Jrock concerts and events to Japanese culture fans in the Chicagoland area. Many Japanese artists who come to America tend to go to the West coast or East coast, but we hope that Japanese music appreciation in America will grow and more artists will be able to come to the Midwest. However, this can only happen with your help! Please use this site to find out what events are coming up and to network with people with the same interests and passions. Hopefully we can create something big!
Thank you!
