PRESENTED BY THE NATIONAL INDEPENDENT VENUE ASSOCIATION & INDIANA INDEPENDENT VENUE ALLIANCE, THE PERFORMANCE WILL TAKE PLACE ALONGSIDE THE NIVA LIVE POLICY SUMMIT AT HI-FI ON OCTOBER 15TH & 16TH. THE SHOW IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.
Celebrated soul legend Lee Fields will bring his full band to HI-FI Annex on Wednesday, October 15, 2025, for a rare Indianapolis appearance. Tickets are available now for $25, with a limited number of 4-pack bundles priced at $20 each via Tixr.
A SOUL ICON TAKES THE STAGE
Soul music pours out of Lee Fields, as free and unstinting as God’s love. Since the 1960s, when he was a teenager on North Carolina juke joint stages, Fields has carried the torch of true soul. Today, he stands as one of the genre’s last great voices — a bridge between its golden era and a new generation of fans.
Over his long career, Fields has helped shape the modern soul movement. He gave Sharon Jones her start as a backup singer and took Charles Bradley on his first tour, both of whom went on to become celebrated stars in their own right. His recordings on Daptone Records, alongside peers like The Dap-Kings, cemented his reputation as a cornerstone of the global soul revival.
With albums like It Rains Love, Fields’ music blends hard-earned wisdom with timeless grooves, earning recognition from critics and contemporary artists alike. His songs have been sampled by the likes of J. Cole and Travis Scott, proving that Fields’ sound belongs not just to the past but to eternity.
For Indianapolis fans, this show represents a rare opportunity to experience a living legend in an intimate outdoor setting — a performance that honors the roots of soul while celebrating its continued resonance today.
