Chicago returns to an indoor mask mandate on Friday. The requirement will change how independent venues approach their concerts, just a month after many venues finally re-opened.

In Chicago, many venues received their federal grant money after months of delay from the Small Business Administration.

Here & Now's Tonya Mosley speaks with Joe Shanahan of the Metro and Katie Tuten of the Hideout for an update on Chicago venues.

This segment aired on August 20, 2021.
