Maggie Speaks

The Perfect Mix

About Me

Chicago's Maggie Speaks has been changing what people think of cover bands since 1997. Drawing off a huge range of music, Maggie Speaks cranks out an incredible non-stop high-energy show that leaves people breathless. You'll know every song, but you won't believe how this band delivers them one after another. Think of it as your favorite mix come to life. Come see Maggie's ever-changing show and see what cover bands should be.

Maggie Speaks formed in 1997. Originally a club band, Maggie quickly grew to be one of the most popular cover bands in Chicago and the midwest. Now Maggie Speaks can be seen at select Chicago clubs, regional colleges and festivals and many corporate and private events where the entertainment needs to be a cut above.

Maggie Speaks prides itself on being among the very best bands in Chicago. Why do we say 'better than the real thing'? We all know that hearing a band live can often be a disappointment. A lack of musicianship that can be 'fixed' in the studio becomes exposed during live performances. But the members of Maggie Speaks are all dedicated, world-class musicians that perform hundreds of shows each year. These first call players came together to deliver a huge range of modern and classic music to live audiences. Maggie Speaks provides studio quality performance with the excitement of a live concert.

The Maggie Speaks' formula: Combine world-class, experienced performers in a band with pop club sensibilities. No reading out of books, no 'faking' it. A completely modern band with the depth and talent to cover any style and era. No matter what the venue Maggie Speaks delivers a fun, high energy show. This band is comfortable on stage in front of 10,000 people yet flexible enough to succeed at intimate engagements.

Maggie Speaks is not a 'gimmick' band. The band embraces the concept that there are only two kinds of music: Good and Bad. Maggie is not limited by eras or genres. The goal is to engage the crowd with a huge variety of music and unceasing energy. If you saw Maggie Speaks last month, there's new material you haven't heard yet.

If you haven't seen Maggie Speaks, you won't believe it. The range and fidelity of music the band brings out makes every show something to see.
