Kool & the Gang return to The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park with fan-favorite hits such as "Celebration", "Cherish", "Jungle Boogie", "Summer Madness" and many more, following their sold-out 4th of July performance in 2022. Sister Sledge – making their Rady Shell at Jacobs Park debut – will get audiences on their feet with their own lineup of hit songs, and DJ Prince Hakim gets the night started in his triumphant return to our San Diego stage. Kool & the Gang have earned two Grammy® Awards, seven American Music Awards, 25 Top Ten R&B hits, 9 Top Ten Pop hits and 31 gold and platinum albums. From Nairobi to Newark, Kool & the Gang have performed continuously longer than any R&B group in history and their bulletproof funk and jazzy arrangements have also made them the most sampled R&B band of all time. A reviewer recently called their performance “a 24-karat show”, and every year, even after a half-century on the road, yields a non-stop schedule of shows across the globe. With dance floors all over the world set alight with the contagious joy and expression in their music, the Sledge sisters became a household name and symbol of unity with their 1979 worldwide hit and iconic album We are Family. The multi-lead vocal group are responsible for some of the biggest dance anthems of all time, including "Lost in Music", "He's the Greatest Dancer" and "Thinking of You".

The Invention of Modern Music Madrigals of Claudio Monteverdi, Sigismondo D’India Bach Collegium San Diego (BCSD), one of the country’s leading ensembles, is performing enchanting early music that has been dubbed as the invention of modern music. Claudio Monteverdi’s music broke the rules of Renaissance polyphony and created the foundations of modern music. Like Shakespeare, Monteverdi’s genius lay in his ability to communicate the full compass of human emotions, especially the most mysterious, tragic, and magical of them all–love. BCSD is performing these pieces in collaboration with GRAMMY award-winning lutenist and conductor Stephen Stubbs. Soloists: - Teresa Wakim, Soprano - Danielle Reutter-Harrah, Mezzo-Soprano - Jason McStoots, Tenor - Aaron Sheehan, Tenor - John Buffett, Bass - Tekla Cunningham, Violin - Aaron Westman, Violin - Stephen Stubbs, Lute - Maxine Eilander, Harp - Adrienne Hyde, Lirone - Shanon Zusman, Gamba - Michael Sponseller, Harpsichord Bach Collegium San Diego engages audiences with accessible, historically informed performances and educational programs featuring repertoire from the Renaissance, Baroque, and early Classical eras. The ensemble was founded in 2003 by Music Director Ruben Valenzuela to diversify the musical offerings of the San Diego community.
