LET THERE BE FUNK™ is a dancefloor-shaking tribute to two of the most electrifying forces in funk, soul, and pop history: Prince and Kool & the Gang. Together, they account for more than 250 million albums sold, 7 Grammy Awards, and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame recognition. From “1999” to “Celebration,” the setlist is loaded with songs built to get people out of their seats.

This one is about movement. Prince brings swagger, funk, pop hooks, and theatrical edge; Kool & the Gang bring brass, groove, and some of the most durable party records ever made. LET THERE BE FUNK turns that combination into a colorful, high-energy concert designed to keep the room engaged from the first downbeat.

LET THERE BE FUNK can be presented as the complete Prince + Kool & the Gang double-bill or developed as a single-bill tribute featuring the music of Prince or Kool & the Gang, depending on your audience, schedule, and event format.

RubyArts works with pre-vetted tribute performers and bands with whom we have established relationships, giving clients proven talent within a production framework we already know and trust.

Your sponsors get in on the action. Logos, recognition, messaging, and custom media are incorporated directly into the visual production at carefully selected moments, creating meaningful sponsor exposure without putting the brakes on the party.

Built for tradeshows, corporate events, theaters, and large-scale celebrations, LET THERE BE FUNK delivers groove, glitter, swagger, horns, and a hit-packed soundtrack designed for one thing: keeping the room moving.
