Bon Jovi's Everett Bradley Brings Holiday Funk to the Irvington Theater

For the first time on the historic Irvington Theater stage, HOLIDELIC is coming to town! This concert is a feel-good celebration of love, diversity, and funk-lore, cleverly told through reimagined classics from the 1970s and 80s alongside inspired originals. 

HOLIDELIC is the unique creation of Grammy Award-nominated singer and percussionist Everett Bradley who has played with the likes of legendary acts like Carly Simon, Bobby McFerrin, Quincy Jones, Hall & Oates, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, and Bon Jovi. 

In HOLIDELIC, 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 that Papadelic affectionately calls dysFUNKtional. The setting is the best of Bradley's favorite 2 worlds: theatre with a dance groove! And after 20 years, Bradley has perfected his funk holiday magic into a Christmas classic. In 2014, Everett made his TV debut as the bandleader/composer for the NBC show, The Meredith Vieira Show, so it's only fitting that the beloved Irvington resident should join this event as a featured special guest! 

Audiences of all ages are invited to join Irvington Theater for HOLIDELIC on Sunday, December 7 at 3pm. Tickets start at just $38 (plus fees) and are available for purchase online.

Everett Bradley is a Grammy-­nominated singer, percussionist, and performer who has lived and worked in New York for nearly 30 years.

He starred, co-wrote, arranged, and won a Theater World Award for Broadway's hit musical SWING, was a featured performer in Broadway's After Midnight, and received critical acclaim for his reimagined orchestrations of 42nd Street.
