One of the pioneers of the '80s Chicago house scene.
Overview
American vocalist Robert Owens is stopping by Wellington's Bodega on Friday night.
Owens is best known for his work with Fingers Inc in the mid-1980s, forming part of and pioneering the golden era of Chicago house scene.
Owens sang gospel as a child, but continued to be stylistically inspired by the genre long after breaking into house music - "Tears" and "I'll Be Your Friend" notable examples of this influence. Although attending his concert may feel like a tad bit of a time warp, Owens work continues to permeate culture with his song "I'll Be Your Friend" appearing in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas in 2004.
