From the NW Suburbs of Chicago, Archrite is a folk americana artist. The artist plays songs spanning the eras including jazz artists such as Ella Fitzgerald, rock and roll artists such as Grateful Dead, The Band, and Rolling Stones, as well as modern day artists such as Elephant Revival. He ties all the original takes on these pieces of music with his own original compositions that promote better understanding ourselves as human beings. After starting to tour in August of 2015 with a benefit trip for the ALS Association, Archrite has spent much of his time on the road including a two month tour, “It’s Cold, I’m Leaving”, during the winter of 2016 in which he spent February and March touring the southeast and midwest regions to raise awareness for the ALS Association once again. Chrissie Mena of Living60010 was quoted saying, “(Archrite) seems to have a quiet understanding of how he can influence change his way,” while interviewing Archrite about a fundraiser he was putting on in his hometown of Barrington, Illinois.
