The G-dfather Returns: James Brown

Event information

The Godfather of Soul lives on in The G-dfather Returns! James Brown’s explosive rhythms, ground-breaking grooves and electrifying stage presence changed the course of music history. Now, that same energy takes over Boisdale in a show that captures his spirit like never before.

Leading the night is Guy Kelton Jones, straight from Brown’s home state of Georgia, delivering the raw soul, unmistakable moves and commanding vocals that defined an era. With a razor-sharp horn section, two dynamic dancers and a top-tier band, every note and every beat channels the essence of Brown’s legendary performances.

From “I Feel Good” to “Papa’s Got a Brand New Bag”, “Living in America” to “Super Bad”, this is a full-throttle celebration of the music that redefined funk and soul. James Brown’s influence is timeless, and for one night, his sound, his passion and his groove take centre stage.
