MotorCity Casino Hotel to Welcome George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic

MotorCity Casino Hotel will welcome George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic to Sound Board on Thursday, May 25 at 8:00 p.m.

Recording both as Parliament and Funkadelic, George Clinton revolutionized R&B during the 70's, twisting soul music into funk by adding influence from several late 60's heroes including Jimi Hendrix, Frank Zappa, and Sly Stone.

Clinton's visibility and presence became familiar to a wider audience thanks to appearances in movies "The Night Before," "House Party," "PCU," and "Good Burger," his hosting the HBO original series "Cosmic Slop," and doing commercials for Apple, Nike, and Rio MP3 players. Clinton composed the theme songs for popular TV programs "The Tracey Ullman Show" and "The PJs".

Clinton has received a Grammy Award, a Dove Award (gospel), and an MTV Music Video Award, and was recognized by BMI, the NAACP Image Awards, and Motown Alumni Association for lifetime achievement. Clinton's Parliament/Funkadelic was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1997. In 2012 he added to his list of accomplishments an Honorary Doctorate of Music from the renowned Berklee College of Music.
