Born and raised on the Southside of Chicago, Lee Jacobson has been a dedicated member of the City his whole life. Lee spent his early adult life playing professional hockey, where he built an impressive reputation for himself at the highest levels of the sport by fighting for his teammates and physically intimidating his opponents. As a second generation lawyer, Lee has always been fascinated by the similarities between sports and the practice of law: a defined arena, rules, official, opponent, and success is ultimately defined by wins and losses. At the age of twenty-five, Lee left his Professional Hockey career to begin his path toward becoming a lawyer. An active alumnus of The John Marshall Law School, Lee has continuously strived to make and maintain contacts, and ultimately become an integral member of the Chicago legal community. On a daily basis, Lee now vigorously fights to defend his clients. Website: www.jacobsonlegalservices.com Patrick discusses the laws around legalizing marijuana in Illinoi

For as long as he can remember, Matt LeGrand has been in love with music. Matt spent his infant years in France and at the age of seven years old, his family relocated to Chicago. The vibrant city and its influential musicians made an immediate impression on the youngster, who found himself exploring a different genre every night, and diving headfirst into the creation of his own sound. Immersing himself in the music scene, he picked up every instrument he could from the guitar to the drums, before finally falling effortlessly into the world of songwriting. In college he took things to the next level, performing in bands and duos around campus, and exploring sounds that eventually brought him to the deeply melodic, urban pop style that has become his staple, solidifying him as a must-watch talent on the Chicago scene. His powerfully energetic mix of soulful grooves and hard hitting pop hooks caught the attention of the music industry and brought Matt LeGrandʼs high energy, dance focused performances to night

It’s a fairytale, probably not the one you would expect, but a tale none-the-less. They say the truth is far more interesting than the lie, you just have to be willing to hear it. The bellow + the whale is a chicago-based neo-soul folk and art duo that speaks a truth that can be hard to swallow at times, taste so sweet at others, and leave you feeling everything. Bianca Bernard Black and Julia Lee Norris are the bellow + the whale. Together they craft intricate harmonies, weave captivating melodies, and serenade the listener with tales of what it means to be human. Their lyrics speak of the human condition, of love and heartache, of doubt, of loss, and of change, taking you to a place that is equally familiar and fantastical, grounded and devoid of gravity, a roadmap of what it means to be unafraid of being afraid.

“From an early age, Roy has had an interest in music. He began playing guitar when he was eight years old. In high school, he took a break from guitar to spend time in photography and hockey, but then got back into music when he began playing drums while he was in college. His interest in drums led to an interest in hip-hop. As he started heavily listening to the beats, lyrics, and production of his favorite artists, he began writing his own songs. Influenced by artists such as G-Eazy, Logic, Cal Scruby, and Post Malone, Roy has been able to develop a writing and music style that he is proud to call his own, and believes it will help set him apart from other artists. With an unmatched energy on stage, and a desire to always learn and better himself, Roy is poised to continue his climb to the top.” Radio One Chicago airs live every Thursday night on WLUW-FM from 6p to 8p cst.
