Tappen Park

GQ is a group that hailed originally from the Bronx and effectively mixed east coast disco and Chicago soul covers in the late 70’s and early 80’s with great success. Their single, “Disco Nights (Rock-Freak),” a single from their debut album Disco Nights, was a huge success, reaching the top of the R&B singles chart and winning the group an American Music Award. Their soulful remakes of the Billy Stewart classics “I Do Love You” and “Sitting in the Park” further secured the group as R&B stars.

Felix Hernandez is in the business of remembering the good ol’ days. Hernandez’s wildly popular radio show, Rhythm Revue, takes on a life of its own weekly at New York’s Roseland, where three thousand disciples regularly come to hear Fernandez spin the sounds of the past and boogie down. Felix Hernandez will rock the crowd once again at SummerStage again with his mix of soul, Motown, funk, salsa and disco dance classics. Bring your dancing shoes.
