Kool & the Gang blend jazz roots with R&B, soul and funk. Founded in Jersey City in 1964 by brothers Robert "Kool" Bell and Ronald Bell, the group evolved from instrumental jams to chart-dominating hits. Their horn-driven grooves and silky hooks fueled classics like "Jungle Boogie," "Hollywood Swinging," "Ladies' Night," "Get Down on It," "Cherish" and the universal toast "Celebration." With powerhouse vocals from the James "J.T." Taylor era and a rhythm section built for dancing, they shaped the sound of 1970s funk and 1980s pop, and their catalog continues to be sampled and celebrated across genres. Onstage, the band delivers precision, showmanship and crowd-wide singalongs, turning every set into a feel-good party.
