Rufus

Rufus is an American band, known for being the launching pad for their lead vocalist-turned-soul superstar Chaka Khan.

The band originally named “Ask Rufus” shortened their name by the time they made their rootsy, soulful, debut album Rufus in 1973. Their cover of “Maybe Your Baby” on that album attracted the attention of its writer Stevie Wonder.

Wonder in turn wrote an original tune for their next album Rags To Rufus (1974) that would put the band on the map. “Tell Me Something Good” was a smash and earned the band their first Grammy.
