Tower of Power Returns to Yoshi’s Oakland for a Special, Limited-Time Residency

Tower of Power is returning home to Oakland! 🥳

After over five decades of delivering their signature horn-driven funk around the world, the band is returning to the city where it all began for a special, limited-time residency. Don’t miss this exciting run of shows.

“So grateful to be coming back to Yoshi’s in Oakland starting Jan 16; three nights a week for four weeks in a row. This residency is a first for Tower of Power and Yoshi’s is the perfect venue; right there in Jack London Square where we got our start back in 1968. It’s been nine years since the train wreck that very nearly killed two of our members so it’ll be a triumphant return and we’re very excited.”
- Emilio Castillo, Tower of Power's Founder and Band Leader
