Matteson
A suburb in the Chicago area
Matteson sits off I-57, about 30 minutes from downtown Chicago, and its live-music options are rooted in its bar-and-restaurant scene rather than dedicated concert halls. Bocce's Bar and Grill, family-owned since 1988, is the area's longest-running music spot. Friday nights are devoted to old-school music and Saturdays to new-school music, each with a possible cover charge, while Thursdays bring karaoke. The spacious bar keeps music at a comfortable volume, which keeps conversation easy alongside the sports-bar crowd. Red Star Kitchen + Bar is a Black-owned restaurant serving southern and American cuisine on 211th Street. Musicians play live music in the evening, and karaoke night runs every Thursday at 10 PM. The spacious dining room opens to a patio for outdoor seating, and the room can get loud on busy nights. Together, these two spots give Matteson a consistent, if low-key, weekend music calendar anchored in food-and-drink settings.
