Nile Rodgers & Chic Join Duran Duran For Sprawling Co-Headlining Tour
Nile Rodgers & Brit pop darlings Duran Duran made their creative kinship known on the the bubbly summer release, "Pressure Off," featuring modern funkateer, Janelle Monae. And while that song has certainly run its course by now, the braided boogie bandit and Chic will be joining Duran Duran on tour this winter and taking the world by funk well into the new year. So grab your mother, father, sister and brother, it's gonna be funky good time, with one of the all-time greats and his legendary regime. Peep the full schedule down below and hold tight. Word has it that the long delayed Chic comeback record could drop any damn day now, but will probably, actually arrive in March, right around the time Chic makes their debut on the tour.
