Cedric Gervais & Nile Rodgers Rework Sister Sledge’s Timeless Hit “We Are Family”

Prepare for an unforgettable musical moment as GRAMMY-winning Cedric Gervais and Rock and Roll & Songwriters Hall of Famer Nile Rodgers unite to breathe new life into the timeless anthem “We Are Family” by Sister Sledge. Following Cedric’s summer smash “Switch” with David Guetta from July this year, “We Are Family” captures the essence of both artists’ worlds, creating an irresistible fusion of soulful funk and house music. This is the second reinterpretation of a classic hit record that Cedric Gervais and Nile Rodgers have worked on together, after their hugely successful single, “Everybody Dance,” with Franklin was released in 2020.

“It feels like with each passing year, ‘We Are Family’ and its message becomes more powerful. Black, white, gay, straight, rich, poor, Christian, Muslim, we are all family. To have the opportunity to reimagine it at the request of my friend Cedric Gervais at a point in time when the world needs hope is wonderful, and its purpose is to bring some joy.” – Nile Rodgers

This reimagined version seamlessly blends Cedric’s signature big-room house energy and lush, melodic layers with Nile’s iconic funk-driven grooves, delivering a dancefloor-oriented masterpiece that’s both nostalgic and respectful to the original version, as well as cutting-edge with a notable modern twist. Pulsing basslines and shimmering synths elevate the timeless chorus, while Rodgers’ unmistakable instrumentals provide a sleek, rhythmic heartbeat. Out now on Armada Music, it’s not only a tribute to the classic but a dance floor anthem crafted for today’s global audience. “We Are Family” is out now on all mayor streaming platforms.
