On September 30, 2022, Gravitas Ventures released Chicago’s documentary “The Last Band on Stage” directed by Peter Curtis Pardini and narrated by the band’s longtime friend and actor Joe Mantegna. On March 14, 2020, Chicago was the last band playing in the U.S. as COVID lockdowns begin. “The Last Band on Stage” tells the incredible story of how the 55 year-old band survived a pandemic that stopped the world in its tracks.

“Chicago has faced many obstacles in lasting 55 years, but the pandemic was possibly their greatest challenge. I’m excited for people to see the story of how they got back to the stage to continue performing,” said director Peter Curtis Pardini. “We’re excited to be bringing ‘The Last Band on Stage’ to audiences worldwide. This funny and informative documentary offers an inside look at how the legendary band Chicago were able to produce content even during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Gravitas Ventures’ Acquisition Coordinator, Mackenzie Maguire.

In the summer of 2022, Chicago and Brian Wilson, co-founder of the Beach Boys, with Al Jardine and Blondie Chaplin, embarked on a co-headlining 25-city tour across the U.S. With both Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees, the Live Nation-produced tour brought together the timeless music of Chicago and the classic sounds of Brian Wilson.

Chicago received The Recording Academy’s Lifetime Achievement Award from the GRAMMYS, which celebrates performers who have made outstanding contributions of artistic significance to the field of recording. A special award ceremony and tribute concert celebrating the honorees was held in 2020.
