The passing of the godfather of House, Frankie Knuckles, may have left a hole in many hearts, but what better way to honor his legacy than through a tribute dance night.
Responsible for many of the tracks that defined house in the ’80s, including ‘Your Love’, Frankie Knuckles was a pioneering and talented force in the dance music world who gothis big break in Chicago at a club called Warehouse. Fans of his records started asking for the ‘house music’ Knuckles and his friends were playing, and a genre was born.
