Hugely influential songwriter, producer and guitarist and co-founder of CHIC
Nile Rodgers is a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee and a multiple Grammy Award winning songwriter, composer, producer, arranger, and guitarist.
In 2023 he became the first creator to be awarded a Lifetime Achievement Grammy for his legacy in the same year as being awarded a Grammy for his new work with Beyoncé on the smash hit ‘Cuff It.’
As the co-founder of CHIC, Nile pioneered a musical language that generated chart-topping hits like ‘Le Freak’, the biggest selling single in the history of Atlantic Records and sparked the advent of hip hop with ‘Good Times’ and ‘Rapper’s Delight.’ His work in The CHIC Organisation, including ‘We Are Family’ for Sister Sledge and ‘I’m Coming Out’ for Diana Ross, and his productions for artists such as David Bowie (‘Let’s Dance’), Madonna (‘Like A Virgin’) and Duran Duran (‘The Reflex’), have sold more than 500 million albums and 100 million singles worldwide. In 2023, Nile Rodgers & CHIC announced a string of UK shows for the following summer.

Great gig. Amazing artist. Good venue. Love Nile Rodgers.
Cracking night never stopped dancing. No long waots for the bar or toilets. Great choice if you want food
Amazing performers, a real treat to see such a great act. The setting was lovely as well, overall fab experience and would love to do it again!
Just a great easy going venue with an artist that fits that venue perfectly. Well entertained and perfect venue. Really enjoyed. Thanks
Brilliant. Didnt stop dancing all night. Nile &. Chic were incredible and the support band were amazing. Loved being in The Glade too. Thank you for a great night.
i cant express how much we enjoyed this gig, going back to our youth and listening and dancing the night away to fantastic music, in beautiful surroundings, and brilliant organisation start to finish
Blenheim Palace a great venue. Good coffee and food on sale. Shalimar were great. En Vogue really good. Great harmonies. Chic were brilliant. Super crowd.

The place was fired up. Nile Rodgers and Chic were on target. The crowd was dancing throughout the whole show. It was a full house for this event. Niles & Chic aimed to please. They delivered a grand performance. Bravo!!!
Absolutely brilliant gig. Highly recommended,. Make sure you've got your dancing shoes on.!
What a concert, this guy is mega talented, the amount of music he has produced is mind blowing, plus his interaction with the audience was first class. Lovely guy with so much energy. One of the best concerts I've ever been to.
Second time I have seen Niles & Chic at the City Hall and this time was even better!!!! Never stopped dancing and the atmosphere was brilliant 🤩 Superb sound and the best venue absolutely loved it!!
A well marshalled event at Newcastle City Hall with pleasant, helpful staff (quite rare these days). The artists and music was totally outstanding. Nile Rodgers & Chic have been on my bucket list for so long and they didn't disappoint. If you have an opportunity to catch this amazing band then do, I cannot more highly recommend. 👌🏼
Excellent concert by Noel and Chic lady immense voice, loved at the time late 70's and amazing to reiterate an impressive past what a man
A must see DECO, Sophie Ellis B and Nile Rodgers & CHIC, didn't want it to end. We danced and sang the night away. Brought happy tears to my eyes as some of the songs and meanings behind them meant so much to me and I know they mean so much to Nile. Thank you for a fantastic evening. Will definitely book again.
Excellent organisation from parking to toilets, 3 fabulous artists, Nile Rodgers was outstanding with Chic, rip off prices for food and drink but to be expected and you don't have to buy. Very civilised evening, very enjoyable. Usual chaos when leaving but not as bad as some events. I had paid for parking but I don't know why, nobody checked, we were just ushered into the nearest parking from the direction that we came.
Nile Rogers and Chic at Westonbirt Arboretum, supported by Sophie Ellis Bexter and Deco. All 3 were good to watch and it was a night of feel good music and dancing. We were able to take in some food and drink which helped keep costs down. The only thing I'd change is to add more toilets as the queues were too long.
