The Village People and Gregory Porter. Festivals aside, a range of other influential artists visit the island whilst touring, which brings us to the lead singer of the Commodores.
The Alabama born man made his names through the funk and soul band, the Commodores, throughout the 70’s with hit singles including ‘Easy’, ‘Brick House’ and ‘Three Times a Lady’. Lionel later went solo in the 80’s and created some all-time classics that never get old. ‘All Night Long’, ‘Hello’, ‘Dancing on the Ceiling’, ‘Say You, Say Me’, ‘Endless Love’… the list goes on! Whilst his performance during the Sunday Afternoon slot at Glastonbury in 2015 was celebrated not just by the 120,000 at the festival but by millions around the country.
