That\u2019s a given.<\/p>\n<p>CIMMfest, the <a href=\"http:\/\/cimmfest.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Chicago International Movies &amp; Music Festival<\/a>, was built on this premise 7 years ago with a conversation between a filmmaker and musician who decided to join the two in the form of a festival. CIMMfest is a collection of musicians, filmmakers, and moviegoers at venues across the city. The motto here\u2014movies by day, live music by night. You can find a little bit of everything\u2014with music videos, documentaries, and fiction films.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s just a little more to it than that though, all of the films have to be about music in some way. As for the performances, they have to either be inspired by motion pictures or have some type of visual accompanying the music. This leads to a perfect blend of entertainment, and when combined with the eclectic venues, it\u2019s easy to become absorbed in CIMMfest.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-134128\" src=\"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/CIMMFestUpload-1125x2000.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1125\" height=\"2000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/CIMMFestUpload-1125x2000.jpg 1125w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/CIMMFestUpload-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/CIMMFestUpload-864x1536.jpg 864w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/CIMMFestUpload-370x658.jpg 370w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/CIMMFestUpload-842x1497.jpg 842w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/CIMMFestUpload-406x722.jpg 406w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/CIMMFestUpload.jpg 675w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1125px) 100vw, 1125px\" \/>Another large part of the fest is the professional media conference known as CIMMcon. This is where you can receive expert opinions from panels and presentations to apply to your own situation. As an added bonus, this is where the Baadassss award will be presented. This year\u2019s recipient is Julien Temple, who has directed music videos for the Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Janet Jackson, and Neil Young. Honestly, he really is a badass, as evidenced by his trying to \u201cstay true, in [his] own fashion, to the ideas of the Sex Pistols.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So there you have it, over 100 films and over 100 bands in a four-day period. A lot of the venues are really cool, eclectic places, and I recommend checking out as many as you can.<\/p>\n<p>One film in particular that we\u2019re excited about, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.samlayinbluesland.com\/title-page\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sam Lay in Bluesland<\/a>. Sam is a Jazz legend, a guy who was on drums when Bob Dylan first went electric at Newport, and he helped form the Paul Butterfield Blues Band that performed at Woodstock, the Monterey Pop Festival, and the Newport Folk Festival. As Corky Siegel puts it, \u201cIf you want to know about the history of the Blues, Sam Lay is the guy. He knows it because he was there. Sam\u2019s musical, Sam\u2019s funny, Sam\u2019s a wild dresser, Sam\u2019s a historic figure because he knew the people.\u201d Sam was on hand for an interview on the 11th at Rosa&#8217;s Lounge\u00a0as well. The attendees were able to ask Sam questions about his life and past in a Q&amp;A session, and everyone had a great time (you can see a picture from the event at the top of this page). For a city with such a rich Blues history like Chicago, it\u2019s very fitting that the film\u2019s premiere would be held here during CIMMfest. The film starts at 7:00 pm on April 18th, the very same day that Sam is will be inducted into the prestigious Rock &amp; Roll Hall of Fame. Check it out!<\/p>\n<p>CIMMfest is from April 16-19, and you can buy tickets at their official site.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>At UrbanMatter, U Matter.
