Tower of Power has been bringing the funk since forming in Oakland, California back in 1968, and more than five decades later, they remain one of the tightest, most powerhouse horn-driven acts in music. Known for their signature horn section, deep grooves, and blue-eyed soul vocals, the band blends funk, soul, R&B, and jazz into a sound that's instantly recognizable and impossible to sit still through. Hits like "What Is Hip?" and "You're Still a Young Man" have made them a staple of funk and soul playlists for generations.
What sets Tower of Power apart is their musicianship — the horn section alone has become legendary among musicians, session players, and bandleaders, influencing countless artists across genres. The band has toured relentlessly and collaborated with a wide range of artists over the years, cementing their reputation as one of the great live acts in American music. Catching them live means experiencing a masterclass in groove, precision, and pure soul energy from a band that has never stopped bringing the funk.
