1773 have been a part of every Blu concert here in Chicago for the past 2 years, and this weekend at the 2nd installment of the ‘Bring That Beat Back’ concert series was no different.

Although they were technically only hosts, they had few moments to rock a new track from their upcoming album titled Greenlight Go! The song, “Makin’ Moves” is produced by Tall Black Guy and features MC/Producer 14kt (of the Athletic Mic League). Sherron Shabbazz over at examiner.com captured the fellas as they injected their energy into the sell out crowd at one of Chicago’s premier live music venues, Subterranean. Check out the video below…
