Stone City Band was formed in 1978 by The King of Punk Funk, Rick James. The Stone City Band served as Rick's exclusive recording and touring band from the beginning and through the height of his career.
This legendary band not only has released their own albums under Motown's Gordy Label but, for more than two decades, has provided the sounds that have been heard on recordings and tours with Rick James, MC Hammer, Teena Marie, The Mary Jane Girls, The Temptations, Eddie Murphy, Smokey Robinson, New Edition and Bobby Brown to name a few.
The Stone City Band comprises original Motown and Gordy recording producing and touring musicians Lanise Hughes, Tom McDermott, Levi Ruffin, Nate Guido Hughes, Oscar Alston, and Danny Lemelle.
