Featuring the music of Joe Sample, Quincy Jones, Earth, Wind and Fire, Steely Dan, and more, the show journeys from soulful elegance to studio-crafted brilliance. Audiences will experience iconic selections like “Street Life,” “In My Wildest Dreams,” “Aja,” “Deacon Blues,” and “Soul Bossa Nova,” alongside fusion-driven gems from Weather Report and Earth, Wind and Fire.

With lush harmonies, deep-pocket grooves, and a spirit of improvisation, the band brings fresh energy to classics such as “Teen Town,” “Sun Goddess,” and “Shining Star,” honoring the legacy while making each moment their own.
