Sunday Funday: Earth, Wind & Fire

Earth Wind & Fire: Official

Multi-Grammy Winning, Multi-Platinum Album Selling, Legendary Music Pioneers: Earth, Wind & Fire gave me my first dose of real music as a child. Hearing their uplifting blend of soul, funk, gospel, jazz, rock, and dance music on the radio on the ride home from school was always a treat. Their grooves always had me tapping my feet, bobbing my head, and dancing in the car. Catchy melodies and fun lyrics would be stuck in my head long after the song was over. A lot of music would not exist today without talented artists like Earth Wind & Fire fusing different styles together the way they did. Check out a video of Earth Wind & Fire in 1981 performing one of my favorite tunes Let's Groove.



Be sure to catch Earth, Wind & Fire in your town this summer!! Hopefully they'll have a stop in California sometime soon.
