Martyrs'

Martyrs' has been a cultural and musical establishment for nearly two decades. Built on the foundations of good beer, good food, and most importantly - good music; the venue has been able to attract some of music's most acclaimed live acts. They've featured such performers as Gov't Mule, Jack Johnson, Beck, and the Pretenders along with a whole slew of up-and-coming acts. Like a song that writes itself, there was a concept in place; Martyrs' would be dedicated to the musicians who give their life to their art. Staying true to the mission statement it continues to be a bright spot on the city's cultural landscape, booking everything from local Chicago acts to national mainstream shows.
