“Nile Rodgers and CHIC are legendary for their iconic style, song, sound, and groove,” states Philip Bailey, co-founder of Earth, Wind & Fire. “Get ready for a non-stop 2054 party!”

“There was a time when we could only dream of ‘seeing’ Earth, Wind & Fire live, now we get the honor of sharing the stage together. Get your feet ready for a deluge of hits,” says Nile Rodgers of CHIC and the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame.

With multiple #1 hit singles between Earth, Wind & Fire and CHIC featuring Nile Rodgers, 2054 The Tour will feature non-stop entertainment from two of America’s most legendary musical groups.
