meet the band
“Leave the gun, take the cannoli. And the guitar.”
These were supposedly the last words said to Alfredo as he went into hiding from the Chicago music scene some years ago. Since then he has honed his guitar and vocal skills, perfected Nonna’s recipe for bolognese sauce, and formed what will soon become known as Chicago’s next band.
Flanked by the Made Men: Tommy Salami on drums and Dr. Al Dente on bass, the band brings refreshing versions of popular favorite songs from the 60’s to today, from classic rock to grunge, from boy bands to female-featured songs, all performed by professional musicians with a fun, humorous, and infectious attitude with plenty of audience interaction.
Alfredo and the Made Men are not your typical cover band. They infuse their songs and their show with their own personality and style, adding twists of humor along the way. They play songs that everyone knows and loves, but in a way that makes them sound new and exciting. Whether it’s a rock anthem, a ballad, or a dance hit, they deliver it with passion, energy, and fun.
Alfredo and the Made Men are more than just a band. They are a family. A family that loves music, food, and fun. A family that invites you to join them on their musical journey. A family that will make you laugh, sing, and dance along with them. So grab your cannoli and your friends, and come see Alfredo and the Made Men live. You won’t fuhgeddaboudit.
