Out today (July 15th) is Chicago's 38th studio album, Born For This Moment. The band is now on the road with special guest Brian Wilson, who along with fellow Beach Boys Al Jardine and Blondie Chaplin, will be opening for the band for most of the summer.
Chicago is led by its three co-founders — keyboardist Robert Lamm, trumpeter Lee Loughnane, and trombonist James Pankow.
We asked Robert Lamm to give us the backstory on Born For This Moment: “It's by no means a (laughs) concept album. I would say it's a document of where the band was at at the beginning of this year. In view of the fact that the pandemic was not ending, I think everybody agreed that, if for nothing else, for our fans, give them something, letting them know that (laughs) we're still alive.”
