Featuring

Pride and Joy

The name says it all. During its 28 years of phenomenal success, Pride & Joy has remained the most popular party band on the Bay Area music scene. This group is the Pride of the Bay Area and a Joy to anyone who loves to dance. They have achieved this by presenting the most timeless pop/soul music of our time in an electrifying high- style show that pulls the audience directly into the heart of their performance.

“Its always been natural for us to reach out and draw in the audience. We make the people feel they’re part of the performance because they are,” says Pride and Joy founder and bandleader Coleman Burke. “That’s what Pride and Joy has always been about...creating a great feeling in the room. That’s as important a part of our show as the work we put into our look, choreography and arrangements.”

Laurel, thank you for sharing your love for Redwood City and also setting the stage for other peopleRead More to express why it's such a great place to live. As a realtor and past resident, I'm a huge fan of Redwood City and am always telling my clients these very things. I think it's a great place to grow up, live and raise kids!

Laurel, your article hit home with me, also. I often tell people how happy I am to live in RedwoodRead More City. Your post describes some of the reasons why very well. Our town is a real community. As you described so well, there is a wonderful ease of connecting with people here and a sense that we can all be who we are and be welcome here. That is very special. Also, I feel that the wide variety of Redwood City's activities (like the Salsa Festival, but also all the remarkable diversity of events that happen all the time in Courthouse Square, cool events at the libraries, the Farmer's Markets, etc.) make this a vibrant, fun place to live. There are always interesting things to do here, most of which are either free or are very affordable. I feel like RWC's elected and appointed officials and other employees who provide key services for the citizens here (teachers, police, firefighters, librarians, Parks and Recreation Dept. employees, utilities employees, etc.) really care about its residents. Not only are there constantly fun things to do that are free or affordable, there are also many classes and education opportunities to support our needs in so many ways (looking for a job, preparing for an earthquake, etc.). It feels like a well-run city. I have only lived here a few years, but I am quite happy here and am very glad to be a resident of Redwood City. Thanks for writing this article!
