Their bulletproof funk and jazzy arrangements have also made them the most sampled band of all time.  Kool & the Gang's drum beats, bass, guitar and signature horn lines lace the tracks of numerous artists including the Beastie Boys, Jay-Z, Madonna, Janet Jackson, Cypress Hill, and P. Diddy. Kool & the Gang is the most sampled band in hip-hop by far. They were honored with a BET Soul Train Lifetime Achievement award and their music has been featured on the soundtracks for Rocky, Saturday Night Fever, Pulp Fiction, Wreck-It Ralph and countless others.  Kool & the Gang has continued to tour the world appearing with artists such as Kid Rock, Dave Matthews Band, Elton John, The Roots and a 50-city tour with Van Halen. 

 

ZZ Top

Saturday, April 12, 2025-7:30 pm "That Little Ol' Band From Texas" has been at it for well over a half century, delivering rock, blues and boogie on the road and in the studio to millions of devoted fans. With iconography as distinctive as their sound, ZZ TOP is virtually synonymous with beards, hotrod cars, spinning guitars and that magic keychain, all of which transcend geography and language.  With signature hits including "La Grange," "Sharp Dressed Man," "Legs," "Gimme All Your Lovin'," and many more, ZZ TOP has performed before millions of fans on four continents.  Their influences are both the originators of the form - Muddy Waters, B.B. King, et al - as well as the British blues rockers and Jimi Hendrix who emerged the generation before ZZ's ascendance.  They have sold hundreds of millions of records over the course of their career, were officially designated as Heroes of The State of Texas, inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and have been referenced in countless cartoons and sitcoms. They are true rock icons and, against all odds, they're really just doing what they've always done. ZZ TOP abides!
