WABASH,Indiana – KC and The Sunshine Band wants you to shake your booty at the Honeywell Center on Saturday, July 2nd. The band is, of course, famous for its infectious dance hits like “Get Down Tonight,” “(Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty” and “That’s The Way (I Like It).”
KC is actually Harry Wayne Casey and he has been called the “founder of the dance revolution.” Most people know that KC and the band hail from Florida and many different musical influences from that state – from Latin to Reggae to Pop – made up what has been described as the “Sunshine Sound.” The band began in 1973 and have since sold in excess of 100 million records.
KC talked to MiBash News and said that he never tires of playing all those hits. He explained, “When you do what you love it never gets old. And I love what I do and I enjoy every moment of it.” One of the things KC finds most enjoyable about playing live is the different vibe every crowd has and the band’s ability to play off those energies. KC on what audience members can expect on Saturday, July 2nd at 7:30 pm the Honeywell Center.
And KC and The Sunshine Band have been keeping busy. Last year, an album of 1960s songs called “Feeling You! The 60s” was released, as well as a Christmas album called “A Sunshine Christmas” which was the first holiday album ever released by the band. KC said that a new single called “We Belong Together” will also be released soon.
Tickets are still available at the Honeywell Center box office, which can be reached at (260) 563-1102 or at http://www.honeywellcenter.org.
