The musical legend and the incomparable disco hit-makers perform a special show exclusively for Meltdown.
Rodgers and CHIC recently released their first new studio album in over 26 years to critical acclaim and a Top 10 position in the UK album charts.
Nile Rodgers amplifies his legacy as a multiple Grammy-winning composer, producer, arranger and guitarist by constantly traversing new musical terrain and successfully expanding the boundaries of popular music.
As the co-founder of CHIC and the newly elected Chairman of the Songwriters Hall of Fame, Rodgers pioneered a musical language that generated chart-topping hits like ‘Le Freak,’ (the biggest-selling single in the history of Atlantic Records) and sparked the advent of hip-hop with ‘Good Times’.
Rodgers’ body of work has garnered him inductions into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame (2017) and the Songwriters Hall of Fame (2016).+
