Sly Stewart put Soul and Rock music together and created FUNK. 50 years after performing at Woodstock, this San Francisco Band is still one of the most influential bands in North America.
It was always a dance party at a Family Stone Concert.
Lance Anderson and Hugh’s Room Live have a long history. Lance brought "The Last Waltz - A Musical Celebration of THE BAND", "Mad Dogs and Englishmen - The Music of Joe Cocker" and Leon Russell", "SOULSVILLE - The Music of STAX" and "Genius+Soul=The Music of Ray Charles" to sold out crowds at Hugh’s Room Live. These themed shows were some of the highlights of the year. Dr. Anderson never disappoints with his critically acclaimed productions.
Lance has assembled an incredible cast of Canadian Blues and Funk all-stars for this show led by Toronto phenom Quincy Bullen and Soul sensation Quisha Wint and an ensemble of some of Canada’s finest musicians, Selena Evangeline (sax) Marie Goudy (trumpet) Collin Barrett (bass) Everton White (drums/vocals) Rohan Staton (guitar) and Lance musical director and organist..

QUISHA & QUINCY
They will play the hits from Sly’s influential playlist like "Dance To The Music", "Everyday People", "Thank You (Fallettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)", "I Want To Take You Higher", "Hot Fun in the Summertime", "Family Affair", "Stand" and many more!
Summer of Soul was the hit Oscar Winning movie in 2021 and featured Sly and the Family Stone, in a spell binding performance. Sly influenced heavily artists as diverse as Prince and Herbie Hancock.
“Unbelievable show …. the energy was infectious and Quincy Bullen is a star ….”
So dig out your tie dyes, and celebrate the music that inspired the world.
