KALIMBA

The internationally touring show Kalimba, The Spirit of Earth Wind and Fire provides an Earth Wind & Fire experience so satisfying it transports audiences back to the excitement of the first time they heard these unforgettable songs. Reproducing the infectious grooves created by EWF’s late founder Maurice White, Kalimba pays homage to Maurice with its exciting stage and lighting production. The show authentically replicates the signature high notes of Philip Bailey, the thick vocals harmonies of Maurice and Ralph Johnson, along with the grooving bass lines of Verdine White.

Playing at some of the most prestigious and historic theaters, music festivals, state fairs, corporate events and functions, casinos, along for opening for such artists as the ‘Village People’ at the 2020 Dubai Expo, and Sister Sledge in Egypt in July of 2023.

In 2015, Kalimba partnered with the late EWF Guitarist and lead vocalist Sheldon Reynolds, who unfortunately passed in June of 2023, and has taken this show overseas multiple times from Russia to the Middle East. Along with Sheldon, Kalimba has performed with other former members of EWF such as Gorden Campbell ( drummer who took over after Sonny Emory), David Romero (Percussionist, 7 years) and John Johnson (Guitarist, 4 years). Be ready to hear all of your favorites, including September, Shining Star, Boogie Wonderland, After the Love Has Gone, Let's Groove, That's the Way of the World, Devotion, Reasons, Sing a Song, Can't Hide Love, Getaway, Fantasy, and Love's Holiday just to name a few.
