Artist description
Best described as George Clinton meets The Chili Peppers at a disco with a stage show that is 2nd to none (quote: Nick Casinelli/Atlantic records). Tightly choreographed, animated and musically dynamic to captivate all the senses. Michigan’s heavy weights come together from KID ROCK to GEORGE CLINTON’S P-FUNK ALLSTARS to form the most explosive blend of soul disco/funk know to planet phat. With legendary super producer NILE RODGERS commanding the front like some overpowering sonic tornado rolling across the nation, comes the Rev. Right Time, a ten-piece funk/soul disco band whose wildly original and entertaining fusion of rock, funk and soul literally defies description. If the Red Hot Chili Peppers played a musical tribute to Sly and the Family Stone… the funkafied freak scene would be Rev. Right Time!
Rev. Right Time lead singer Rev Ferris Right Time, guitarists Ricki Hendrix and Jeffro, bassist LaVelle, Dwight "The Saint" Saint Julieon on drums, saxman/keyboardist Kosmic Kenny, former "MC BREED’S” scratcher/guitarist D.J. Psycho, trumpet/percussion Doug Dynamite D Wousley, Nick "Dr. Cuch" Cucinella on the trombone, and P-Funker Peter Keys on the keyboards have exploded onto the Midwest music scene with a list of accomplishments that has thrilled their loyal following and peeked the interest of many major label executives and music moguls.

By Robert E. Martin
Spotlights will be spanning the open air and the limousines will be in full
force at Hollywood Nights on Saturday, March 10th when Rev. Right Time &
the 1st Cuzins of Funk mark their return to Old Town Saginaw with a
showcase Flashback Saturday Night Fever Disco Party.
Mid-Michigan's premier 'Funk-n-Booty' Revue have recently finished recording with legendary producer Nile Rogers (Chic, Madonna, David Bowie) and are on the verge of signing a major label recording deal.
Enthusiasm for Rev Right Time is so hot in the offices of East & West Coast executives, that for the March 10th Saginaw appearance Rogers is coming to Saginaw to catch the Rev's LIVE set, and he's bringing record executives from possibly four major labels to Hollywood Nights to witness the frenzy of the Rev & gang LIVE and in the flesh.
As of presstime, representatives from Dreamworks and V2 have confirmed, and
according to Rogers, interest in the band is so intense that executives
from Warners and Virgin may also be in attendance.
Don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to watch the Rev & crew put
Saginaw on the map once again!
