SANTA YNEZ, CA – September 19, 2024 – The Commodores, who are best known for hits such as “Brick House” and “Nightshift,” will fill the Samala Showroom with their iconic brand of R&B and funk at 8 p.m., Friday, October 4, 2024, at the Chumash Casino Resort.

Formed in 1968, the band’s original members were students from Tuskegee Institute, Alabama.
