(Niagara Falls, ON) November 20, 2023 – Get your best funky outfit ready! Tower of Power will be making a stop at the OLG Stage at Fallsview Casino on March 2, 2024.
For over 55 years, Tower of Power has delivered the best in funk and soul music. East Bay Grease defined their sound and landed them with Warner Brothers. Bump City, their 1972 debut for the label, was a hit on both the Billboard 200 and the R&B Albums chart and netted them the hits “You’re Still A Young Man” and “Down to The Nightclub.” The 70s were a boom period with radio classics like “So Very Hard to Go” and “What Is Hip?,” and the band continued to tour and record over the years.
In 2018, they returned to Oakland to celebrate their landmark 50th anniversary. The band’s window-rattling grooves and raucous party spirit has been a balm for the soul throughout their half-century existence, but the release of 50 Years of Funk & Soul: Live at the Fox Theater couldn’t have arrived at a better time.
Tower of Power has travelled the world, enjoying hit singles on their own and backing legendary artists including Otis Redding, Elton John, Santana, the Grateful Dead, John Lee Hooker, Aerosmith, Bonnie Raitt, and countless others. In the process they’ve defined an “Oakland soul” sound.
Cathy Price, Vice President of Marketing, Niagara Casinos said ” Tower of Power brings an energetic and invigorating mixture of R&B, soul, jazz, funk, rock, and pop to their music and we are so excited to welcome them to the OLG Stage at Fallsview Casino”.
