The Love Supreme Jazz Festival – Europe’s biggest greenfield jazz festival – has announced that Nile Rodgers & CHIC are the latest act to join this year’s line-up performing on Sunday 6th July. Returning to Glynde Place, East Sussex from Friday July 4th to Sunday July 6th, this year’s festival will present an expansive programme featuring established stars and fast-emerging talent from across jazz, soul, funk, R&B and beyond.
As the legendary songwriter, composer, producer, arranger, guitarist and the co-founder of CHIC, Nile Rodgers pioneered a musical language that has generated timeless anthems including Le Freak, Good Times, and Everybody Dance, among other massive hit songs. As a songwriter and producer, he has sold over 500 million albums with an incredible array of iconic songs including We Are Family (Sister Sledge), I’m Coming Out (Diana Ross), Let’s Dance (David Bowie) and Like A Virgin (Madonna). His innovative, trendsetting collaborations with Daft Punk (Get Lucky), and Beyoncé (Cuff It, Levii’s Jeans) reflect the vanguard of contemporary hits.
