LineUp

Sister Sledge, from North Philadelphia, rose to fame with the disco anthem "We Are Family" (1979), working with Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards. Known for their versatile style, they excelled in pop-R&B, Philly soul, funk, and disco. Their notable hits include "He's the Greatest Dancer" and "Lost in Music." They topped the UK charts with "Frankie" (1985) and were Grammy-nominated. Sister Sledge collaborated with Narada Michael Walden and George Duke, remaining active across decades while occasionally recording new music.
Jocelyn Brown, born in Kingston, South Carolina, is renowned for her powerful voice in disco classics like "Somebody Else's Guy," Inner Life's "I'm Caught Up," and Musique's "Keep on Jumpin'." Collaborating with legends like Patrick Adams and Inner Life, her gospel roots shine in her soulful performances. She has worked with artists including Lou Reed and Diana Ross, and her voice was sampled in Snap's "The Power." Her influence spans decades, with notable work in the '70s to the 2000s alongside Todd Terry and Incognito.
