Grateful for the Grateful Janes. ❤️
They’ve rehearsed with us for years and watching them gear up for the 20th annual Covers for Cover show at Lincoln Hall last weekend was something special. Incredible women, incredible musicians, and even better humans. And they brought us baked goods so....🤘🏽

What is the Fort Knox Studios staff listening to?! Each month we are asking one of our staff members what their top 3 most-listened to albums, EPs, artists or podcasts are. This month we asked our General Manager, Erin! Erin is currently listening to the “Trust Me” podcast, I Prevail’s latest album “Violent Nature“ and Fred Again’s “Victory Lap” on repeat! Stay tuned for more @fortknoxstudios staff favorites!

The Hangar has always been one of the most unique spaces at Fort Knox Studios—7,200 sq ft of raw warehouse tucked inside our 150,000 sq ft campus.

Earlier this month, we saw what it could truly become. The Chicago Philharmonic and Apollo Chorus filled the room with over 200 musicians, rehearsing An African American Requiem by Damien Geter and Invictus by Stacy Garrop for their Harris Theater concert - bringing the space to life.

Big things are coming for The Hangar—stay tuned for updates on what’s next. The transformation has only just begun. ✨

We had an incredible time hosting our 2025 Client BBQ and celebrating the 10 year anniversary of @2112chi last week.
Huge thanks to everyone who came out to hang, eat and enjoy the night with us.

Big shoutout to our vendors and friends who made it even better including our tenants @productionhousechi & @voice_lifestudio. And of course @chicagodjacademy for providing the entertainment!
