Hip Hugger at Total Sports in Naperville

You’re cruising around in your car when THAT song comes on the radio. You know exactly which song I mean, don’t you? It’s that dance tune from back in the day that makes you instantly crack a smile and crank the volume to 10. The one that forces your mouth sing along and insists that your body bust a move, despite the carload of teens to your left, laughing hysterically.

We’re not exactly sure how it happened, but somewhere along the way, dance music has turned into a “guilty pleasure”. Well, Hip Hugger, Chicago’s own breakout dance band, has had it. They are officially removing all traces of guilt from dance music and leaving you with pure pleasure.

Female-fronted Hip Hugger plays the very best dance songs from the 60’s through today, putting their own rocked-up spin on artists as diverse as Michael Jackson, P!NK, Morris Day and the Time, Jason DeRulo, The Backstreet Boys, The Bee Gees, Gwen Stefani, Kanye West, Chic, OutKast, Christina Aguilera and the Black Eyed Peas.

Hip Hugger features former members of several of Chicago’s most successful cover bands, including Dot Dot Dot, The Fabulous Janes, Grimm Taylor and The Hat Guys. This combination of industry vets and fresh new faces delivers a much-needed “one-two punch” of expertise and youthful energy onto the Chicago music scene.

Just admit it…you KNOW you love it. And now, Hip Hugger is giving you permission to revel in the glory of unadulterated dance music!
