The six-piece indie rock band from Chicago\, led by singer and guitarist Axel Ellis (star of Amazon Prime’s The Runarounds)\, have been headlining tours and releasing music since 2018. Rounding out the rest of the band are the Hatchetmen- made up of Salvatore Defilippis on guitar\, Hunter Olshefke on bass\, Nick Deputy on drums\, Phil Pistone on trumpet and Quinn Dolan on saxophone. \n\n\n\nThe group have released multiple singles and EPs since signing with Arista Records in 2023\, including their latest collection\, the “Constant Change” EP which features Albert Hammond Jr. of The Strokes on the single “Blurry Lights”. They plan on touring and releasing music for the foreseeable future.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThey will also party. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFollow Loeb Playhouse\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Chauncie\n\n\n\nBorn in 2022 in the basements of Purdue University\, Chauncie began to play small house shows in their local DIY music scene. While mainly opting for covers and crowd favorites\, the band’s chemistry was clear and they quickly became a regular act on the weekend show bills. Now (just two band name changes later)\, they have released their first studio-recorded EP which is available to stream on most platforms\, as well as for purchase on this site. \n\n\n\nTheir cohesion as musicians only became stronger once they began writing\, and was the pillar to their writing process. In hand with this\, their love for a variety of music genres not only connected them but provided much inspiration for their own music.  \n\n\n\n​Playing in basements and on stages alike throughout the Midwest\, Chauncie leans on their high-energy\, effortlessly fun\, and captivating stage presence to bring down the house with every set.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n Know Before You Go\n \n \n\n\n\n \n Manage Tickets\n \n\n\n\n\n \n Directions & Parking\n \n\n\n\n\n \n Program\n \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n \n Generous support from\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nADDITIONAL SUPPORT\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConvos is Self-Supporting.Your Ticket Purchases and Generous GiftsPower it All! \n\n\n\n \n Learn More\n \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n \n Dive Deeper\n \n \n\n\n\nAx and the Hatchetmen talk to Tower Records\n\n\n\nVersatile\, crowd-pleasing\, organic\, and elevating are only a few words often used to describe the fast-rising Chicago-based indie sextet\, Ax and the Hatchetmen.  \n\n\n\nComprised of lead singer Axel Ellis\, guitarist Sal Defilippis\, bassist Hunter Olshefke\, drummer Nick Deputy\, trumpeter Phil Pistone\, and saxophonist Quinn Dolan\, the six-piece band channels a vast array of influences spanning generations and genres alike to channel just about everyone.  \n\n\n\nFollowing the March 15th\, 2024 release of their brand new single “Where tf Did I Park My Car?\,” we sat down with band members Axel and Sal before their New York City show at the Mercury Lounge to talk about the sextet’s journey and what more is to come.  \n\n\n\n \n Tower Records interview\n \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n Enhance your experience\n \n \n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n BUILD YOUR OWN SEASON \n PICK5 + Save \n Did you know that if you buy 5 shows or more (not 5 tickets)\, you save an average of 10% off single-ticket prices?
