KC and the Sunshine Band are still as widely popular today as they were when they first danced into the music scene 40 years ago.
Harry Wayne Casey – KC for short – developed a unique fusion of R&B and funk, with a hint of a Latin percussion groove, resulting in an impressive string of hits like “Get Down Tonight,” “That’s The Way (I Like It)” and “Shake Your Booty.”
With sales of more than 100 million records, nine Grammy nominations, three Grammy Awards and an American Music Award, KC and the Sunshine Band was one of the most progressive bands of the ‘70s and is credited with changing the sound of modern pop music.
They will be bringing their dance party to The Fred Saturday night, July 11, as part of the Lexus of South Atlanta Summer Concert Series. The gates will open at 7 p.m. with local support act Presto Party Band going on at 8 p.m. KC will take the stage at 9 p.m.
There are a limited number of tickets still available for the concert Saturday night and may be purchased at the box office or online at amphitheater.org. Call 770-631-0630 for further information or to order tickets by phone.
