A banda Chicago nasceu em 1967, em Chicago, Illinois, inicialmente sob o nome de The Big Thing. Pouco depois, mudou para Chicago Transit Authority, lançando seu primeiro álbum duplo em 1969, que rapidamente chamou atenção pela mistura de rock, jazz, soul e música clássica, com forte presença de metais. Após o sucesso, a banda encurtou o nome para Chicago, consolidando sua identidade.
A formação clássica incluía Robert Lamm (teclados, vocais), Peter Cetera (baixo, vocais), Terry Kath (guitarra, vocais), Danny Seraphine (bateria), James Pankow (trombone), Lee Loughnane (trompete) e Walter Parazaider (saxofone, flauta, clarinete).
Durante os anos 70, o Chicago se tornou uma das bandas mais populares dos Estados Unidos, emplacando hits como 25 or 6 to 4, Saturday in the Park e If You Leave Me Now. Após a morte trágica de Terry Kath em 1978, a banda passou por mudanças, mas continuou a lançar sucessos, especialmente nos anos 80, quando atingiu grande popularidade com baladas românticas como Hard to Say I’m Sorry e You’re the Inspiration.
Ao longo das décadas, o Chicago lançou mais de duas dezenas de álbuns de estúdio, experimentou diferentes formações e estilos, mas manteve sua marca registrada: a fusão do rock com a força dos metais e arranjos elaborados. A banda permanece ativa até hoje, sendo considerada uma das mais duradouras e bem-sucedidas da história do rock.
