Al Scorch's Big Fantastical Residency returns to the Hideout after a well loved 2025 run! The Return of the Big Fantastical Residency brings a wide array of musical guests from across Chicago and the country-at-large to join the show every month. Along with a set from Al Scorch and his rotating line-up of musical-wizard-friends, this run of shows features surprise guests, holiday specials, and an overall community-building musical hang. And as always, Chicago's own DJ Scrabblor spins House, R & B, Juke, Footwork, and more before and after the show.

With a set from Charles Joseph Smith!
