KC and the Sunshine Band to bring boogie shoes (and the Village People) to Waite Park
It's going to feel like a wedding reception in Waite Park on Aug. 7.
The Ledge Amphitheater is hosting funk and disco legends KC and the Sunshine Band and the Village People as part of its summer concert series.
The Florida-formed headliners rose to fame in the mid-70s with hits like "Boogie Shoes," "Get Down Tonight," "That's the Way (I Like It)," and "Shake, Shake, Shake (Shake Your Booty)," songs that have become so familiar that casual listeners might have forgotten it was just one group behind the string of hits.
Like any group that's been around for more than half a century, the lineup has changed many times, but it's still led by founder Harry Wayne Casey.
The Ledge's lineup kicks off on June 8 with Alison Krauss and Union Station and continues throughout the summer with performances from ZZ Top, Chicago, Barenaked Ladies, Darius Rucker, Slightly Stoopid, and many others.
Tickets to see KC and the Sunshine Band are on sale at 10 a.m. on Friday, May 16.
