History
Founded in 1987 by Stanford University juniors Larry Shorter and Tony Stovall, the group's name is a tribute to Sly and the Family Stone's vision of inclusiveness and acceptance of all races, genders, and creeds as well as their 1967 hit of the same title.[7][better source needed]
In 2017, EP performed with artists Wiz Khalifa and Ouyang Nana at the Breakthrough Prize awards ceremony.[8]
In addition to performing at campus and Bay Area events, EP has toured the United States, Jamaica and the Bahamas.[citation needed]
EP is an entirely student-run organization: the arrangements in its repertoire have all been arranged and transcribed by its own members, past and present.[citation needed] While EP generally performs with a group of 8-16 singers, graduating members always remain a part of the group.
