Hannibal Buress and Eshu Tune Return to the Chicago Stage

Hannibal Buress (and Eshu Tune) return to the city for a part-comedy, part-music show at the Chicago Theatre on Nov. 2 for 312 Comedy Festival. More than a year after his debut musical album as Eshu Tune, the Chicago-rooted comedian and actor is back with a new hilarious single “I LIFT WEIGHTS!!” And in case anyone was wondering, he *was* lifting weights in the booth while recording his vocals. Hannibal made his way back to the Vocalo studio to talk with hosts Bekoe and Nudia Hernandez about fusing comedy and music, his latest single, opening his own venue and more.

This interview originally aired on Vocalo Radio 91.1 FM on Tuesday, Oct. 31 during The Windy City Hour. It was produced by Bekoe and Nudia Hernandez, and edited by Bekoe. Keep up with Hannibal Buress on Instagram @hannibalburess and Eshu Tune @eshutune.
