Chaka Khan - Funk This
Global soul icon, Chaka Khan, returns to the UK with her first brand new material in a decade, a Grammy Award-winning, best-selling, album and single that's already won her rave reviews worldwide!
Funk This is a return to the sounds of her musical roots with Rufus, a glorious collaboration with the super hit making team Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis. It's a tough 'n' earthy showcase for the gritty, in-your-face sound that first attracted Khan's solid and loyal fan base.
Disrespectful, featuring R&B legend Mary J.Blige, earned a Grammy for the category 'Best R&B Performance by a Duo', whilst Funk This achieved the Grammy for 'Best R&B Album' in 2008, making Chaka Khan an amazing 10 time Grammy Award Winner.
Khan came to notoriety as the singer for Rufus and five years later as a break out solo artist. Known for her catalogue of classic hits: 'Tell Me Something Good', 'Sweet Thing', 'Everlasting Love', 'Ain't Nobody', 'I'm Every Woman' and the UK number 1, 'I Feel For You', Khan is a timeless artist, who is a renowned proponent of 'Old school' soul music. Her energy, dynamism and passion for live performance over three decades has brought her special brand of vocal magic to audiences across the globe.
Chaka Khan will perform for 2 nights only, in London and Manchester in July, showcasing songs from the Grammy award winning album 'Funk This' plus classic tracks from her 35-year repertoire.
IndigO2, London - 22nd July 2008.
Bridgewater Hall, Manchester - 23rd July 2008.
Chaka Khan will be performing at the 2nd iTunes Live: London Festival at KOKO in Camden, Saturday 26th July.
