Funk legend George Clinton is to make a one-off appearance at the British Library in London. The Parliament-Funkadelic founder will speak about science fiction, Afro-futurism and, er, gettin’ down. Clinton will appear at an event titled Space Children, part of the library’s ongoing science fiction exhibition. Together with Nona Hendryx, who sang Lady Marmalade as a member of Labelle, Clinton will appear on 18 June to discuss his love of spaceships, funk and “all things galactic”. “[Clinton’s] P-funk mythology turned his whole band into characters from a wild space opera,” explained a press release, and Labelle’s “concerts and extraordinary styling in the mid-70s had to be seen to be believed.” [Source]
