THE TOPSFIELD FAIR PRESENTS AN EVENING WITH
KC AND THE SUNSHINE BAND
Saturday October 8, 2016 at 6:00 p.m.
TOPSFIELD – The Topsfield Fair, running September 30 – October 10, 2016 is pleased to announce that KC and The Sunshine Band will be performing in the Arena on Saturday, October 8, 2016 at 6:00 p.m.
KC and The Sunshine Band aim to serve a single purpose: to create instant happiness through music. For over 40 years the group has done just that, topping the charts with seven No. 1 singles which became iconic hits (like “Shake, Shake, Shake, Shake Your Booty,” “Get Down Tonight,” “That’s The Way I Like It,” “Boogie Shoes,”. The band has also achieved three triple platinum albums, three GRAMMY® Awards, (including Album of the Year for the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack), an American Music Award. They became the first act since The Beatles to score four No. 1 pop singles in one 12-month period in 1976. KC and the Sunshine Band’s unique meeting of Caribbean, pop, R&B and Latin inspired infectious grooves and their distinctive Sunshine Sound, impacting the world over and teaching them how to boogie. The band’s infectious sound has given life to countless ad campaigns, hundreds of movie soundtracks and numerous television shows, including the BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing in 2014. In 2001, KC was honored with the National Association of Recording Arts and Sciences Governor’s Award, the highest honor given by a chapter of the Academy. KC and The Sunshine Band has defined dance music and forever influenced music with its timeless sound and mission of getting people out of their seats to celebrate, which is still being fulfilled today.
