George Clinton and Parliament-Funkadelic announce 2022 tour
George Clinton and Parliament-Funkadelic have revealed details of a new tour.
The legendary American funk music collective, which was originally formed in 1968, will tour the U.S. across June, July and August. The shows mark a return from retirement for 80-year-old Clinton, who went on a “farewell tour” with Parliament-Funkdadelic back in 2019.
Named after Funkadelic’s seminal 1978 album of the same name, check out dates for The One Nation Under a Groove tour below.
Widely considered to be one of the most influential outfits in music, Parliament-Funkadelic (aka P-Funk) spearheaded both psychedelic funk and Afrofuturism on albums including Funkadelic’s ‘Maggot Brain’ and Parlimanent’s ‘Mothership Connection’. In 1997, Clinton and 15 other members of P-Funk were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
In January, Parliament-Funkadelic founding member Calvin Simon died aged 79.
