Levitt VIBE Buffalo Music Series: Unity Band

For more than 40 years, The Unity Band has been a cornerstone of Buffalo’s music scene. Founded in 1983 by bassist Thomas Fluker, The Unity Band has spent decades sharing stages with R&B royalty, including The Temptations, The Manhattans, Ohio Players, The Delfonics, and Roy Ayers.

Their versatility is unmatched – spanning R&B, blues, crossover, and country – earning Buffalo Music Awards in four categories: bassist, drummer, keyboards, and guitarist. Come experience one of Buffalo’s most beloved bands in one of Buffalo’s best new outdoor spaces.

Admission is free. Arrive early to grab a bite from on-site food trucks or bring a picnic and find your spot on the lawn. Portable restrooms are available on-site. Street parking is available in the surrounding area, and the venue is wheelchair accessible.

This concert is presented by Buffalo Funk Fest.
