Tower Of Power Featuring Dennis Lambert and Kalapana in Manila 2018
This September 7, 2018 get ready for a night of classic songs as the Tower Of Power will be having its 50th Anniversary Tour in Manila at the Smart Araneta Coliseum. Mounted by Ovation Productions, the triple bill event will also feature Dennis Lambert and Kalapana.
The American R&B-based horn section and band actually began in 1968 when Emilio Castillo met Stephen “Doc” Kupka in July of that year. When Doc auditioned during a band rehearsal at Emilio’s house, Emilio’s father called him into the kitchen and offered the following advice: “Hire that guy, he’s got something.” This was how Doc and his signature baritone sax came to be a major part of the band’s sound, and on August 13, 1968, Tower of Power, as we know them today, began playing gigs, and soon became very well-known in the area.

The band’s next album, Bump City, led to a string of hits and memorable albums that include many of the songs that TOP fans come out in force to hear, even to this day. Over the years, the Tower of Power Horns have recorded with hundreds of artists as diverse as Aerosmith, Elton John, Little Feat, Phish, Santana, Heart, and many others, forever infusing the radio airwaves with Tower’s musical DNA.
Another featured performer is a songwriter-producer and singer Dennis Lambert.

In the 1980s, Lambert continued to write and produce alone under his Tuneworks banner.
