Celebrate Earth, Wind & Fire’s eternal impact with hit after hit of the supergroup’s iconic songs, including ‘After The Love Has Gone’, ‘Let’s Groove’, ‘Can’t Let Go’ and ‘September’.
Created by the group’s former guitarist Grammy Award-winning Al McKay in the 1990s, the show has toured around the world to sold-out audiences in different incarnations over the years, featuring a who’s who of the most influential funk and soul musicians of their time, curated by McKay.
