Tower of Power
To underwrite the production of Mozart in Dance, we reached out to sponsors who support the growth of collaborative programming for the benefit of all Santa Barbara. Please consider joining them in bringing this collaboration to The Granada Theatre stage. Sponsorship benefits include private events, special access to the artistic staff and companies’ leadership, preferred seating, special recognition, and more.
Formed from a chance meeting between Emilio Castillo and Stephen “Doc” Kupka in 1968, Tower of Power are a rhythm and blues band best known for their brass section, who have become some of the most successful and most prolific collaborators in R&B history. With hit songs like “You Got to Funkifize,” “So Very Hard to Go,” “This Time It’s Real,” and many more, Tower of Power continues to create their own brand of soul and R&B.
