CHEZ BUTTER
JUNE 2026
NEWSLETTER

Hey Everyone-

Musician Ethan Sellers here. 

Welcome to the very first e-mail newsletter for Chez Butter, my Chicago-based soul band!

We have a bunch of fun free outdoor summer public gigs coming up and would love to see you at them!    

Frequency for this newsletter will be monthly at most, and I will not e-mail you if we don't have news.  If you don't remember subscribing to this list or don't want to hear from me/us any more, there's an unsubscribe link at the bottom.

With those introductions and disclaimers out of the way, let's get on with the gigs - some of which are coming up soon!
