About KC & The Sunshine Band
GET TICKETS NOW
KC and the Sunshine Band have been making the world dance for over 50 years. Founded by Harry Wayne Casey (KC), the band pioneered a signature blend of R&B, funk, pop, and Latin percussion that helped define the disco era and change the sound of modern pop music.
With more than 100 million records sold, nine Grammy nominations, three Grammy Awards, and an American Music Award, KC delivered timeless #1 hits including “Get Down Tonight,” “That’s The Way (I Like It),” “Shake Your Booty,” “I’m Your Boogie Man,” and “Give It Up.” They became the first act since The Beatles to score four #1 pop singles in a single year.
KC’s music remains a cultural staple—featured in major films, commercials, television shows, sporting events, and the Olympics—while continuing to influence generations of artists across genres. Today, KC and the Sunshine Band perform over 100 shows annually around the world, celebrating five decades of feel-good music that keeps audiences on their feet.
The Forum River Center has a clear bag policy. Bags can be clear plastic or vinyl and cannot exceed a one-gallon clear plastic freezer bags size (Ziploc bag or similar). Diaper Bags are not allowed.
The following items are NOT permitted: professional and/or flash photography, or video/audio recording devices; weapons of any kind including guns or pocket knives; outside food and drinks; backpacks; items that may disrupt the concert experience.
