George Clinton & Parliament Funkadelic

"Those looking for that mothership connection get total satisfaction."

"It is clear these legendary musicians won't stop playing to packed-out stadiums anytime soon."

George Clinton's Parliament-Funkadelic collective has influenced everyone from Prince and Red Hot Chili Peppers to Kendrick Lamar and Wu-Tang Clan. The legendary funk pioneer George Clinton tells Steve Bell how artists like those helped his band to "reinvent themselves".

Ten acts confirmed!

"This treat felt more like a trick; a P-Funk cover band posing as the real deal."

"Where to start with saxophonist Greg Thomas - say WHAT!? That's some circular-breathing voodoo magic right there."

"I have fun performing so it's not a job. I feel like I'm on drugs even though I'm not on drugs anymore."

The funk legends are headed Down Under in September to play Qld's Caloundra Music Festival.

The veteran musician has rejected chemotherapy as a path of treatment

"No one here doubts that Good Friday is about to even get better."

Best. Thursday. Ever

As Clinton left the stage after 45 minutes, he left his adoring fans with the deep advice: “Free your mind and your ass will follow”.
