The Ginge (‘jinj)– Defined as "short for ginger" by the band, “Ginge” means liveliness, sprit and vigor. e.g.,  “now that girl’s got some ginge.”  Combining melodious vocals, soaring lead guitar and a driving rhythm section, The Ginge offer an infectious and spirited sampling of classic and newer rock (both well-known and obscure), soulful rhythm and blues and well-crafted original material. The group's chameleon like repertoire and eclectic mix of music brings an infectious energy to any venue, event or private party.




The Ginge Partners with Children’s Memorial Hospital.
In an effort to support one of the most worthwhile causes, the Ginge has agreed to donate all proceeds from its current CD, Continental Anyone? to Children’s Memorial Hospital in Chicago.   For 125 years, Children’s Memorial Hospital has been treating the area most critically ill children.  The Ginge is proud to help support those in need at Children’s Memorial.   So buy a CD, great music for a great cause.




Radio Station 101.9 WTMX, the Mix Selects The Ginge to Perform its Party in the Park at Millennium Park.
The Ginge is excited to be playing the picturesque Millennium Park as part of The Mix’s summer concert series.    We kinda feel cheated because last year the band nearly got blown off the stage by a sudden tornado.  The year before the temperatures dipped into the forties.  Here is hoping the third time is a charm. 




Kicking Off the Festival Season
Ah, festival time the most wonderful time of year.  In a first glimpse of springe, the  Ginge has been asked to perform at the 34th annual  Wells Street Art Festival on Saturday June 14th 2008.    The Ginge is looking forward to all the fine art on display at this fun-filled event.
