About the Event

Described as “a big band of scorching funk” by All About Jazz, Tower of Power has delivered the best in funk and soul music for more than 55 years.   

Bump City, the band’s 1972 sophomore release, was a hit on both the Billboard 200 and the R&B Albums chart and netted the hits “You’re Still a Young Man” and “Down to The Nightclub.” The 1970s were a boom period with radio classics like “So Very Hard to Go” and “What is Hip?” The band continued to tour and record through the years. 

Tower of Power has traveled the world, enjoying hit singles on its own and backing legendary artists, including Otis Redding, Elton John, Santana, the Grateful Dead, John Lee Hooker, Aerosmith, Bonnie Raitt, and countless others. In the process, Tower of Power has defined an “Oakland soul” sound as instantly recognizable as that of founder Emilion Castillo’s hometown, Detroit, as well as inspirations like Memphis and Philadelphia.   

Fans around the world can attest to Tower of Power’s vigorous and dynamic live show. Now you too can feel the groove!
