George Clinton is an American treasure. As one of the foremost innovators of Funk, Clinton is the mastermind behind the legendary Parliament/Funkadelic, creating a uniquely identifiable and timeless art that has lifted Funk from what was once considered a simple style to an internationally recognized and respected musical genre. His incredible ingenuity has earned George Clinton and Parliament/Funkadelic their rightful place in music history: an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and recipients of the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.
Reb & the Good News
Reb & the Good News is a Portland based funk, world, and soul group that brings optimism and cathartic release to the dance floor. Catchy horn lines and sultry vocals soar over grooves that you can’t help but move to. Led by vocalist and guitarist Reb Conner, Reb’s love of rhythms from around the world bring the dance floor on a journey that’s full of surprises. Formed in 2021 in the middle of the pandemic, these songs reach for hope in a world under pressure. Reb believes that through feeling deeply and dancing together, we can face all that we’re up against in this life. She is supported by her partner, sax and keys player Leon Cotter, (a touring member of the California Honeydrops), as well as some of Portland’s heaviest hitters: Cyrus Nabipoor on trumpet, Ross Garlow on bass and Kirk Kalbfleisch on drums.
Reb & the Good News released their debut album “Wings” on May 11th 2021. This album is a culmination of a lifetime searching for Reb’s own voice in music. At 19, her love affair with music began by playing songs around a beach fire in her coastal hometown of Lincoln City. During a subsequent trip to Europe with a guitar, jazz was the music that most spoke to her, and she returned to the States to pursue an education. Reb went to music school at the age of 21 not yet knowing a major scale. With a lot of catching up to do, her education lasted all of 7 years, starting at LCC and finishing at the University of Oregon where she focused on Jazz guitar. Reb left her last collaborative project, High Step society in 2018, and moved from Eugene to Portland ready to tell her own story and bring her own aesthetic to life.

Bring the FUNK!!
Would love to see this show at the Crystal!
choose me “just for the funk of it” lol
All of my coworkers and my love got to go to a free show in the park years ago to see this legend while I worked and I would love to experience the funk live finally please and thank you!
Ready to put a glide in my stride and a dip in my hip and come aboard the mothership after getting the tickets, thanks!
I would LOVE to see the legend that is George Clinton!!!!
I’ve had a really terrible few weeks learning about a family members illness. This show would make me forget, if only for a moment.
I wants 2 get funked up
Let’s get funky!!!!
I’m WAY overdue for a funkadelic night!
Sir Nose must be denied, defeated and returned to the world from which he came. Mr. Clinton has never faked the funk and we know this scares long snooted pretender to the core of his being. With P-Funk in the house as well, the only Pinocchio we need worry about is the one associated w/ Guillermo del Toro.
I choose to enlist as a funkateer and join my booty with those in attendance. We swear allegiance to the FUNK. WE FUNK!
My ass is to be freed and my mind to follow. With independent glutes and cerebral cortices, we shall turn back the forces of Sir Nose and his ever lengthening list of poser-produced whack tracks. Long Live The Funk and see you all on The Mothership!
The BOMB!
