Summertime and the living is easy

We've had a great summer so far and it can only get better. We've played some rockin' shows to our amazing fans and released some new tunes along the way. We're looking forward to seeing you all again soon!

What's up BIT Fans

We had some great shows in the past month including one where we got to celebrate a Blackhawks Stanley Cup championship. The new tunes have been getting a great response from the crowds and we're looking forward to play some other new material soon. We're sad to hear the awful news of Goose Island Wrigleyville being forced to shut down due to the "malling" that's going on near Wrigley Field. We have a show coming up Friday July 23rd at Goose Island and we plan to rock the place out. Hope to see you there!

Long time no chat

We've been missing you and wanted to give an update on the band. We've had some great accomplishments lately with our song "Wiser" getting some airplay in Chicago and we're hoping to expand on that a bit more. We're working on some great things and new tunes for our upcoming shows so please stay tuned.

Butterfly In Traffic is...

Vocalist/guitarist, Ed Gershon, drummer, Grant Niebergall, guitarist, Thomas Ott and bassist, Matt Moreno. Hailing from Chicago, these eclectic gentlemen formed a band in 2009 after a series of serendipitous events. Equal parts creativity, talent and optimism form a distinct sound to strike the fancy of audiences far and wide. Butterfly in Traffic's broad appeal stems from their signature blend of folk, blues and rock with soulful lyrics and sing-along tunes to tap your foot to. Their inspiring debut EP entitled, This Space and Time, is now available.
