Cherub Brings High-Energy Performance to Chicago’s Chop Shop
By Kyle Muha
Cherub lit up Chicago on September 11th with a high-energy performance and a brand-new album, playing to a sold-out crowd at the Chop Shop.
It took only a few songs for the crowd to show they were more than ready to embrace Cherub’s latest material live. Midway through the set, Jordan Kelley paused to reflect on how much it meant to both him and bandmate Jason Huber that fans already knew the words to every track from the new record.

Of all the songs from Everything Changes and That’s OK, the highlight of the night was undeniably their performance of “Motion.” The track is classic Cherub — catchy, danceable, and impossible not to move to — and the crowd responded in kind.
Of course, longtime fans didn’t leave empty-handed. Cherub wrapped up the night with their beloved hit “Doses & Mimosas,” sparking a full-on singalong that filled the venue.
It was a fitting end to a night that celebrated both the band’s growth and the enduring power of the song that started it all.
