Another WERS favorite, Raphael Saadiq, is wrapping up his set here at the Life Is Good festival, and we can’t believe the weekend is almost over! Saadiq got the crowd into the groove with his charm and energy, dancing across the stage and crooning into the microphone. Before releasing his album “Stone Rollin’,” Saadiq was known as a producer, and he has worked with everyone from Joss Stone to A Tribe Called Quest to the Bee Gees. With his solo blend of funk, old-school R&B, and feel-good rock and roll, Saadiq seems poised on the brink of huge success. After a second long day of dancing, audience members were still bouncing along, especially to the track “Stone Rollin’.” As longtime fans of both song and artist, we were amazed by the live rendition. Saadiq is definitely an act to catch in concert. No matter whether you’re already a fan or not, his energy will win you over, all over again!

Only one more act tonight! Ray LaMontagne is up next, so check back in later for coverage of his set and a wrap-up of the entire weekend. Thank you to everyone who stopped by to talk to us today!
