Ray Parker Jr. & Raydio, whose captivating guitar work and grooves captivate fans, are making a comeback to Billboard Live for the first time in about four years.

Ray Parker Jr., born in 1954 in Detroit, began as a session guitarist in his teens, contributing to albums by Aretha Franklin, Herbie Hancock, the Temptations, and others. With Stevie Wonder’s encouragement, he began writing songs more seriously, producing the hit “You Got the Love” for Rufus & Chaka Khan, and his talents as a songwriter flourished. Encouraged by Herbie Hancock to release his own albums, he formed his own group Raydio in 1977. Throughout that long career, he has provided us with pop-flavored, high-quality soul music.

This year, the latest Ghostbusters installment, Ghostbusters: Frozen Summer, which features the iconic theme he composed for the 1984 Ghostbusters film, is released, drawing renewed attention to a treasure trove of disco and soul numbers that continue to shine across the ages. We hope you fully enjoy a glamorous stage filled with hit songs that will have you on your feet.
