Good Apples' collaborative songwriting begins with improvisation and goes though revision and much practice, and results in a unique blend of influences that each member brings, from old school punk to psychedelic rock, to noise. Good Apples have played such Chicago mainstays as The Empty Bottle, Elbo Room, Double Door, Ronnie's (RIP), Mutiny, and The Hungry Brain, and they have appeared on The Watt from Pedro Show and MusicVox.
