Bow & Spear Tickets

Bow & Spear emerged from Chicago’s vibrant underground scene in 2012, formed by John Bergman and David Ritter. The lineup solidified in 2015 with Tyler Ryssemus, injecting a punchy, guitar-forward energy that defines their signature sound: grunge, shoegaze, and a fierce punk attitude. They’ve built a reputation for blistering live shows and a discography that traverses hazy textures and driving riffs, all rooted in a distinctly Midwest indie spirit.
