Cafe Campesino Roastery & Coffee House

Since their debut in early 2005, Information Superhighway has been a fixture on the Chicago music scene. With singer Leslie Beukelman and composer/multi-instrumentalist Rob Clearfield at the helm, the Superhighway easily transcends the confines of genre and tradition. Alongside bassist Patrick Mulcahy and drummer John ...Smillie, Clearfield and Beukelman draw on such diverse influences as '70's prog rock, jazz, gospel, Icelandic ambient-pop, Americana and the best of today's underground rock, creating a sonic world that is uniquely their own. Catchy yet sophisticated, hard hitting but sensitive, Information Superhighway forges ahead into uncharted territory.

After many months in the studio, Information Superhighway released their debut record First Morning in 2006. The album brings
together seven of Clearfield's compositions, ranging from catchy pop to jazz improvisation to mind-blowing modern rock. Both
intimate and intense, First Morning has been met with rave reviews.

Two years later, the band is proud to release two brand new songs: "Soft and Not Knowing" and "Your Voice - Part II." In
collaboration with producer and mixing engineer Anthony Gravino, The Superhighway has risen to a new standard of orchestration and sonic clarity. With this release gaining momentum, Information Superhighway is back in the studio working an E.P. due for release spring 2010.
