FITZGERALDS SONGWRITER CIRCLE:HOSTED BY TERRY WHITEW/ SPECIAL GUESTS: Andon Davis and Chris SieboldFREE SHOW!Click Book Now to Make a Reservation Terry Whites career as a musician can be traced back to his childhood in Oak Park, IL, just outside of Chicago, where he began teaching himself guitar as an adolescent (and played in the requisite talent show/school dance/house party band after graduating high school), but really took root in Carbondale, IL, where he attended Southern Illinois University and formed a band with Phil Bayer, Kevin James and Chris Obren after graduation.
