Buckle up, Bangkok! The iconic Nile Rodgers & CHIC are bringing their electrifying live show to Bangkok for one unforgettable night. Mark your calendars for this 17 September at UOB LIVE, Emsphere as Nile Rodgers and his incredible band CHIC ignite the stage with their timeless grooves.
Nile Rodgers is a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee and a multiple Grammy Award-winning songwriter, composer, producer, arranger, and guitarist. As the co-founder of CHIC, Rodgers pioneered a musical language that generated chart-topping hits like “Le Freak,” the biggest selling single in the history of Atlantic Records, and sparked the advent of hip-hop with “Good Times.”
His work in the CHIC Organization includes “We Are Family” with Sister Sledge and “I’m Coming Out” with Diana Ross, and his productions for artists like David Bowie (“Let’s Dance”), Madonna (“Like A Virgin”), INXS (“Original Sin”) and Duran Duran (“The Reflex”) have sold over 500 million albums and 100 million singles worldwide. His innovative, trendsetting collaborations with Daft Punk (“Get Lucky”), Daddy Yankee (“Agua”), and Beyoncé (“Cuff It” and “Leviis Jeans”) reflect the vanguard of contemporary hits.
This Bangkok show promises a night filled with some of CHIC’s hit songs, including “Le Freak,” “Good Times,” “Dance, Dance, Dance” (Yowsah, Yowsah, Yowsah), and “I Want Your Love,” among other classic hits to be performed that evening. Get ready to be transported to a world of disco, funk, and pure musical joy.

Wow, Nile Rodgers is a legend! I can’t believe he’s coming to Bangkok. This is going to be epic!
Absolutely! His work with CHIC and all those collaborations are just beyond iconic.
Yeah, but the ticket prices are outrageous. Not everyone can drop 5,800 Baht on a concert!
I get that, but it’s not every day you get to see such a talented artist live. Worth every Baht if you ask me.
Ticket sales are all about squeezing us dry. When music should be accessible for everyone, it’s the rich who get front-row seats.
But you have options. The cheaper tickets at 2,800 Baht aren’t that bad for this legendary performance.
True, plus there’s always the chance that some people resell their tickets at a lower price closer to the date.
Resale isn’t a guarantee, though. It just feels wrong that access to culture is behind a paywall.
Does anyone else think Nile Rodgers hasn’t been that relevant lately? It’s mostly nostalgia fueling this concert.
Are you kidding? ‘Get Lucky’ with Daft Punk was massive! He always finds a way to stay relevant.
Okay, I’ll give you that. But still, his biggest hits are from decades ago.
Finally something other than K-pop in Bangkok! No disrespect to K-pop, but variety is the spice of life.
Hey, K-pop is amazing! But yeah, some diversity is good. I might give this concert a shot.
Can’t wait to hear ‘Le Freak’ live! One of my all-time favorite songs.
At those prices, I hope they deliver a flawless show.
Ugh, pre-sale access for Mastercard? Just another way to cater to the elite.
Nile Rodgers has a fabulous discography. Hoping for some surprise tracks!
Why Bangkok of all places? Would’ve loved to see them in the US.
Bangkok is growing as a cultural hub. Plus, not everything needs to happen in the US!
For those complaining about price, remember you get what you pay for. Quality over quantity!
I find it interesting how music from different decades can evoke varying levels of nostalgia and relevance.
If you haven’t heard ‘Good Times’ live, you haven’t lived!
Nile Rodgers = living legend. No debate.
Agreed! His influence is felt far and wide in the industry.
Can we talk about the insane demand for tickets? These are going to sell out in minutes!
