Holidelic - Live at Joe's Pub

HOLIDELIC, created by Grammy-nominated singer/percussionist EVERETT BRADLEY (Bon Jovi, E Street Band, SEAL and more) is funk-lore cleverly told through 70’s and 80’s inspired originals and reimagined classics that celebrate diversity and love as one nation under a groove. Bradley brings to life the role of Papadelic, funk’s Father Christmas, a combo of George Clinton and a soulful Santa. He weaves this psychedelic holiday tale with humor, heart and booty shakin’ grooves played by a P-funk clad band of top shelf misfits Papadelic affectionately calls dysFUNKtional. The setting is the best of Bradley’s favorite 2 worlds: theatre with a club dance floor! The show debuted in 2002 after Bradley released a holiday album called Toy. “After 9/11, I felt like we all needed to heal, and the way I was going to do that was by writing Christmas songs,” he remembers. “Then I got the idea to combine two of my favorite things – Christmas and funk.” From the moment Bradley stepped onstage in a big furry white coat, sunglasses and 6-inch platform shoes, audiences went wild & have been selling out night after night ever since. This year, Bradley ushers in the return of everyone’s funkiest holiday tradition with the perfect gift: HOLIDELIC (Live at Joe’s Pub), a 10-track LP of highlights from 2023's HOLIDELIC run at one of New York City’s most iconic venues. The album features the toe-tapping singles “Get On Down That Chimney” and “Santa Bring Da Funk,” as well as more soulful selections like “Simple Wish / One Nation.” Available in funkadelic red vinyl, this live album will have the whole family hitting the dance floor for the holidays.
