King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard - Live in Chicago '23: 3 Night Box Set - Hand numbered edition

*Mockups may not reflect final product

In June 2023, three nights of raucous reptilian energy rained down on the newly-opened Salt Shed venue in industrial Chicago. The whipping wind and torrential downpours did not hold back as King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard tore through some of their most dynamic live material to date, including a cosmic rendition of The River and the live debut of Change.

The resulting musical document is now available across 11 LPs (and one special 7” with bonus content) through Epicenter Records. The packaging has been thoughtfully designed by Shan Horan and Ezra Gray in a whimsical vintage psychedelic style – by the fans, for the fans. The Morton Salt theming carries through from the color palette to the nutrition facts style of the track listing. The illustrations are filled with easter eggs – you’ll notice something new every time you look at it!

You can purchase each night individually, or bundled together with a slipcase. The 7” will even be available to buy on its own! Each purchase comes with an artwork poster and Homer sticker.

25% of the profits from this release will go to the Greater Chicago Food Depository. Visit their website (https://www.chicagosfoodbank.org/) to learn more about the impactful food security work they do.

Ezra Gray is a designer and illustrator from the Boston area, who spends their days in the thrift store pricing records and antiques, and their nights making extensive unofficial cartoons and bootlegs for their favorite bands. Gizzard took over their brain in 2020 after being a casual fan for a few years, and they have since been to many of their concerts all over the US. Personal highlights from the Chicago recordings include Boogieman Sam’s classic blues references, and the Change debut!

Mark Lorden is an engineer and music enthusiast based in Southern California. He also grew up in New Hampshire, but has never seen Gizz there.
