Earth, Wind & Fire Experience feat. Al McKay

Wed, 09. Nov 2011, 9.45 PM | GET FUNKY NOW

Festsaal Messe Basel

Summer, sun – feel the beat and let the party begin right here in the middle of autumn in Basel! No other two bands have influenced club and dance music more than Earth, Wind & Fire and also Chic. With their extremely groovy sound, characterized by complex, delicately orchestrated bass rhythms, these two American bands laid the foundation for disco, funk, house and techno. However, an evening with these two bands is not meant for music history musings: Shaking your booty and dancing with the groove is what it’s all about with hits like «September», «Let’s Groove», «Fantasy» or the unstoppable «Le Freak» by Chic. The motto is: Get funky now!
