Galactic w. Corey Glover and Corey Henry

Galactic is back on tour and selling out shows at each recent venue.  With the February 2 release of their latest album, Ya-Ka-May, combines the genres of Funk and Bounce with dueling horns of Sax and Trombone along with soul ripping vocals keeping crowds on their toes since they started their winter tour with 5 shows on Jam Cruise.

With a wide mix of originals and Cory Glover's first time touring with Galactic was well received and added new blast of soul to an already amped and funky band.  The club had the lights low adding to the funky mood and highlighting the band's new back-lit stage set.  The band rocked the house with Led Zeppelin's How Many More Times with Stanton Moore working overtime on the drums and Corey Glover breaking octaves on vocals.



Galactic Tickets are on sale for their February, March, April, May and June tour dates but are selling out quick.


Special guests are scheduled to join Galactic along the tour including Mike Gordon, Trombone Shorty and Cyril Neville.
