SHEILA E. & THE E-TRAIN

Grammy Award–winning “Queen of Percussion” Sheila E. brings her signature mix of rhythm, funk, and Latin soul to the stage with her powerhouse band, The E-Train. Founded in the early ’90s, The E-Train showcases the jazz-infused side of Sheila E.’s artistry, blending masterful musicianship, irresistible grooves, and pure Bay Area energy.

A trailblazer who began her career performing with icons such as Prince, Lionel Richie, and George Duke, Sheila E. has spent decades redefining live performance. Fresh off her first Grammy win for Bemba Colorá (from her acclaimed Latin albums Bailar Deluxe and Sheila E. & Friends Instrumentals), she continues to push creative boundaries.

Now, Sheila E. & The E-Train turn up the funk with their latest album Hella FonkE, featuring new singles including the hometown anthem “Oakland N Da House” (feat. Too Short & Trombone Shorty) — a groove that celebrates her Oakland roots with fire, soul, and swagger. With every performance, Sheila E. proves why she remains one of music’s most electrifying artists — a trailblazer who follows the beat and invites the world to dance with her.
