Hot Like Mars
Pay What you want \ $10 Suggested
Hot Like Mars are Chicago’s funkiest, most soulful rock export — a jam-funk quintet built on airtight grooves, fearless improvisation, and a deeply collaborative vocal sound. Blending classic soul and R&B textures with modern jam-band firepower, the band delivers a live show that keeps dance floors moving and crowds locked in.
Since launching in late 2023, Hot Like Mars have grown from a hometown buzz band into a fast-rising national touring act, selling 1,000+ tickets across a packed Chicago residency and supporting sold-out shows at The Metro and Park West for Pigeons Playing Ping Pong and Andy Frasco. Their 2025 breakout included a standout set at Northlands Music & Arts Festival, a multi-date Colorado run, and a first-ever East Coast tour capped by a sold-out night at Charleston Pour House. Heading into 2026, Hot Like Mars continues to center a core ethos: using music to break down racial barriers, create inclusive spaces, and remind people that joy, movement, and community belong to everyone.
