In my opinion, Kaliq Woods is by far the hottest clarinet player in Chicago. I first met Kaliq back in 2009 playing some sick Jazz over by the Wrigley Building. Toady I ran into him on the corner of Adams and Wabash playing his usual smokingly smooth phrasings. If you come to Chi-Town, be sure to listen for Kaliq. (See update below)
“The good part about street performing is you have the freedom to play what you love to play and get people’s reactions. The downfall is sometimes you get cops that come up and bother you for playing music. I don’t know why it’s like that.” Kaliq Woods, Rolling Stone
