THE VIBE
Stage
Leader
of the .Paak
It might not be “Silk Sonic,” but the
evening promises to be smooth as silk
when the new godfather of hip-hop, R&B,
soul, and funk, Anderson .Paak—and
backing band The Free Nationals—comes
to Fontainebleau on September 28.
Scheduled for 14 tour dates, you’ll
hear the artist’s 2016 critically
acclaimed album Malibu in its
entirety and experience the
musical stylings of special
guests Maurice Brown and
GAWD. While this eight-time
Grammy-award winner is
known for his infectious
drumming, dirty swag,
soul-baring lyrics, and
storytelling that doesn’t
shrink from real world
topics, don’t be too
surprised if you catch him
around town after the
show posing as his
alter-ego DJ Pee .Wee,
or hanging with his
Silk Sonic counterpart, Bruno Mars.
