Tuesday 28th June 2022

Aiken Promotions are pleased to announce that NILE RODGERS & CHIC have confirmed a return to Live At The Marquee in Cork this summer on 28 June 2022.   Tickets go on sale Thursday 24 March at 9am.

Among music legends, Nile Rodgers is truly exceptional. He 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 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”. Nile transcends all styles of music across every generation with a body of

work that’s garnered him inductions into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame.

Currently, Nile serves as the first-ever Chief Creative Advisor for the incomparable Abbey Road Studios,

helms the critically acclaimed Apple Music 1’s “Deep Hidden Meaning Radio with Nile Rodgers” and is

the Co-founder and Chairman of the We Are Family Foundation, since 2002.

His unforgettable live performances with CHIC have been included in “festival best performances” at

both Glastonbury and Coachella resulting in a BBC Music Awards nomination for “Best Live

Performance”, and the LA Times stating, “Nile Rodgers influence stretches all over Coachella, beaming

the sound of a better future”.

Nile’s work in the CHIC Organization and his productions for artists like David Bowie, Diana Ross, and

Madonna have sold over 500 million albums and 75 million singles worldwide while his trendsetting

collaborations with Daft Punk, Avicii, Keith Urban, Disclosure, Sam Smith and Lady Gaga reflect the

vanguard of contemporary music.
