The Knockaround Band makes the kind of pop/alt that lands somewhere between vulnerability and euphoria — big choruses you shout back, built on songwriting that doesn't flinch.Fronted by vocalist and lyricist Carleton Koldyke, the Chicago five-piece rounds out with Ian Harsh and Ryan Curtis on guitars, Matthew Robinson on bass, and producer-drummer Julian Stacey. Their catalog — including Ghost of Me, All or Nothing, Ends Tonight, and Dancing on Tables — trades in identity, resilience, and the messy business of growing up, delivered with the widescreen melodic instinct of Maroon 5 and Matchbox Twenty and the modern urgency of The Band CAMINO.But the studio has never been the whole story. The Knockaround Band earned its reputation on stages: more than 40 dates at Barstool River North in 2025 alone, plus performances at Navy Pier, Gallagher Way, Cubby Bear, Bub City, and Joe's Live. They've built the rare thing an unsigned band can build — a room full of people who already know the words.Offstage they run like a business: clean production, organized logistics, a consistent lineup. Onstage they run like a band with nothing to lose. In 2026, with new music on the way and a widening Midwest footprint, The Knockaround Band is betting that both things can be true at once.
