The funkmaster himself, George Clinton returns home to New Jersey to celebrate his 80th birthday on Friday, March 18, 2022 at 8:00pm. See George Clinton and & Parliament-Funkadelic perform their timeless classics. George Clinton will be joined with special guests Vernon Reid and Nona Hendryx.
Join the celebration with George Clinton, the “Godfather of Funk” behind Parliament and Funkadelic. One of the foremost innovators of ‘70s funk, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (by Prince himself!) in 1997, and received a much-deserved GRAMMY® Lifetime Achievement Award in 2019. Join us at NJPAC as we hail the living legend who gave the world P-Funk, “Atomic Dog,” One Nation Under a Groove and Mothership Connection. With a career spanning five decades, three dozen albums and sweeping musical influence, George Clinton is a fearless creative mastermind who keeps on rocking.
Reid, founder and primary songwriter of the rock band Living Colour, was named No. 66 on Rolling Stone’s magazine’s 2003 list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time. Nona Hendryx is a vocalist, record producer, songwriter, musician and author with a career that spans over six decades. She was one of the founding members of Patti Labelle & the Bluebelles, a group that would eventually become Labelle.
