Chuck Brown Band

The Chuck Brown Band toured the world with the Godfather of Go-Go, the man that created the genre,  for the most prolific period of his life, when he had 5 Billboard charting releases and a Grammy nomination over a ten-year period.  They continue to honor him by carrying the torch, keeping the beat alive and keeping the party going.  Chuck Brown’s son Wiley Brown leads  the band forward on vocals, looking and sounding remarkably like his father while bringing the party to a whole other level.  Chuck’s daughter KK has always been a part of the show, keeping Chuck’s “Family Affair” vibe as much a part of the band as it is a part of the relationship between the band and the audience.  Digging through the vault of Chuck Brown classics from Run Joe and Go-Go Swing to more recent hits like Chuck Baby as well as new material by the band, interspersed with other Go-Go hits, the Chuck Brown Band combines the best of the Godfather and the best of Go-Go in an uplifting, non-stop performance.  Infusing the Godfather’s mix of jazz, funk, and soul, along with audience call and response, his legacy continues. The Chuck Brown Band has been joined on stage by Ledisi, George Clinton, Dwele, Raheem DeVaughn, Lil Mo, Doug E Fresh, and others. 

 The Godfather may be gone, but his legacy continues as the Chuck Brown Band carries his funky groove forward without missing a B-E-A-T. Wind Us Up, Chuck!
