Act 1.5 presents…

Get ready to groove to the legendary rhythms of Nile Rodgers and CHIC!

This iconic duo has been captivating audiences worldwide for decades with their infectious beats and timeless classics.

As a co-founder of CHIC, Nile Rodgers pioneered a musical language that generated chart-topping hits like "Le Freak" and "Good Times," sparking the advent of hip-hop. His collaborations with artists like David Bowie, Madonna, and Duran Duran have sold over 500 million albums and 100 million singles worldwide.

"Some of the greatest CHIC shows have taken place in Liverpool so I’m thrilled that we are bringing our funk back to the city. We love the people and it’s always a night to remember. However, the circumstances this time are special, as we’re joining forces with our friends in Massive Attack to launch Liverpool's UN climate action programme across music and film.

Our We Are Family Foundation community of global youth changemakers have been sounding the alarm and working in the climate change space for years, as have Massive Attack, and now it’s time for all of the music and film communities to get onboard. Yes, we're going to have a party at Liverpool Arena, but we’re also going to act!"

Don't miss this incredible opportunity to experience the magic of Nile Rodgers and CHIC live in Liverpool!

Chic featuring Nile Rodgers

Chic are an American disco and R&B band that were founded in 1976 by guitarist Nile Rodgers and bassist Bernard Edwards. The group, still fronted by Rodgers, are best known for hit songs including Le Freak, Dance Dance Dance, I Want Your Love, Good Times - the latter of which provided the bedrock of The Sugarhill Gang's A Rapper's Delight, the first multiple-platinum Hip Hop single. The group regard themselves as a rock band for the disco movement 'that made good on hippie peace, love and freedom'. In October 2012, Chic were nominated for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for the seventh time. Nile Rodgers, whose 1958 Fender Stratocaster has played on an estimated $2bn worth of hit music, also has numerous producer credits to his name - including Let's Dance, David Bowie's biggest-selling album, and Madonna's blockbuster album Like a Virgin, plus records by Sister Sledge, Duran Duran and Diana Ross. In March 2013, Rodgers was profiled in the highly rated BBC4 documentary special, Nile Rodgers: The Hitmaker.
