Photo Gallery: KISS-FM Jingle Ball at Allstate Arena
‘‘Tis the season for the metaphorical kissing of the ring that is the radio station holiday concert. It’s the most wonderful time of the year when bands and artists pay homage to terrestrial radio by popping in for brief live sets as a way of thanking the radio overlords for putting their radio friendly unit shifters into heavy rotation throughout the year.
This past week it was iHeartRadio’s Chicago affiliate 103.5 KISS FM who hosted the resurgent and reunited Jonas Brothers, emo-rapper NF, former One Direction-er Niall Horan, boy band vibers Why Don’t We, rising folkie Lewis Capaldi and popsters AJR and Zara Larson. Allstate Arena in Rosemont was kind enough to serve as the musical gift box that contained an evening filled with deafening squeals of merriment.
