Chaka Khan And Steel Pulse At Stern Grove 2024

The effervescent vocalist Chaka Khan closed out the 2024 iteration of the well-established Stern Grove Festival Series in grand form at San Francisco's bucolic Stern Grove. This ten-time Grammy winner and 2023 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee showed no signs of slowing down during her soulfully incendiary set. British-based reggae band Steel Pulse, a 1986 Grammy recipient, opened for the former Rufus lead singer with a torridly funky session.

Ms. Khan, celebrating her 50-year career in the music business, closed out SG's annual Big Picnic weekend and Summer Series finale, to an extended standing ovation. This year's robust list of artists included Herbie Hancock, Lucinda Williams and The Commodores.
