Led by guitarist and producer Blake Rhein, Patchwork Inc. is a rotating collective of Chicago artists born out of a desire to bring the spirit of session songwriting to the city. The project’s new five-song EP, “Chicago Patchwork,” is out tomorrow, featuring 70s-inspired instrumentals and soulful vocalists Rhea the Second and Michael Damani. Earlier this week, the three sat down with Vocalo host Nudia Hernandez to break down the project and its release party tonight.

This interview originally aired on Vocalo Radio 91.1 FM during Nudia in the Afternoons on Tuesday, Oct. 14. It was hosted and produced by Nudia Hernandez. It was edited and mixed by Morgan Ciocca, with production support from Talia Lopresti. Keep up with us @vocalo on Instagram and @vocalo.radio on TikTok.
