About this listen

For this episode of Randomly Selected, we sit down with Eric Williams to talk about The Last Block Party!

We talk about everything from the origins of The Sound System Block Party and the original conception of the idea all the way to the present day of its last installment!  Eric goes down memory lane with host Mario Smith and talk about 18 years of amazing culture, community and love! 

The Silver Room Sound System Block Party, founded in Chicago in 2002, is a multicultural, all-ages music and arts festival and is known as a mainstay in Chicago summers. Its roots come from the historic sound system block parties in the Bronx that connected communities through music. Having grown from a modest event for friends + family, the Block Party now attracts over 35K+ guests. We take pride in how our vibrant event highlights arts and businesses across the greater Chicagoland area, and creates a platform for famed and up-and-coming music acts.
