Christmas is arriving early in Chicago thanks to hometown musician Jonny Polonsky.
On Nov. 23, Black Friday, Polonsky is set to release UNRELEASHED: Demos and Rarities 1996-2018 via Jett Plastic Recordings. The highly-anticipated album features 18 tracks – plus three bonus songs on CD and digital formats – pressed on colored vinyl as a limited-edition gatefold with album artwork by underground legend Bossdog.
In honor of this momentous occasion, Polonsky will be performing at GMan Tavern on Wednesday, Nov. 28. He is also set to play JettBlast Fest in Detroit on Nov. 23.
Polonsky explained that he was excited to share this previously unheard material with the world.
“About six months ago, the thought occurred to me that I should release a greatest hits record.
Which is, of course, ridiculous because I don’t have any hits. But the idea quickly morphed into
a compilation record of all the best songs from the last 20 years that I never put on a record,” he said in a statement. “That idea sounded exciting to me.”
