Listen.

That rumbling you hear? It’s the greatest band of all time taking flight. Prepare.

Hailing from outer space, and based in the Chicagoland area, Crowd Vulture began with 4 kindred young spirits in May 2023, formed with one purpose in mind: Burning down the house every night. Playing a brand of progressive rock unlike anything out there, you’ll be hard pressed to find more versatile entertainment.

The pummeling drums of Sheisty (Stevie Beilke). The fierce guitars of Alejo Paloma (Alejandro Samuels). The stank-face inducing heavy bass of Hoj Poj (Miguel Urquizo). And the enigmatic soulful croons and bellows of El Presidente (Patricio Aranda). It all collides to create an unmistakable sound you’ll never forget, and keep coming back to for more.

Progressive, yet unpretentious. Grooving, yet visceral. Tightly structured, yet free flowing. As sensual as they are unapologetically aggressive, Crowd Vulture takes on any and every genre, venue, and opportunity with fury in their quest to spread a religious experience even the most hardcore atheists can get behind. You leave a Crowd Vulture show a different person. For that set’s duration, nothing else in life matters.

Ashbary Coffee House, Bookclub, House of Music, the Orland Park Summer Fest, these are just some of the venues that have been blessed by CV’s explosive energy, and they’re just getting started.

Times are tough these days. Tensions are high. Hopes are low. The world needs healing, and no one is happier to spread those healing vibrations then Crowd Vulture.
