Harry Wayne Casey, KC for short, developed a fusion of R&B and funk, with a hint of a Latin percussion groove. The band has had five No. 1 songs, won three Grammy Awards and an American Music Award. 2023 marks the band's third appearance at the largest summertime hot air balloon and music festival in North America.
The three-day fest takes place July 28 to 30 and features the spectacle of up to 100 balloons taking flight twice each day.
Everclear and Lit headline the festival on Friday. Laurie Berkner also performs Friday. In addition to music, there's plenty of family entertainment.
