Mark Hicks was the heartbeat of Slave, one of funk’s most influential yet underrated bands to come out of Dayton, Ohio. As the group’s original bassist, Hicks helped craft the deep, hypnotic grooves behind classics like “Slide,” “Watching You,” “Just a Touch of Love,” and “Stellar Fungk.” In this video, we explore Mark Hicks’ journey, the rise of Slave, and how his bass lines helped define an era of 1970s funk, R&B, and dance music. From Dayton’s legendary funk scene to Slave’s national success, this film breaks down why Hicks’ contributions remain essential to funk history, even if his name rarely gets the spotlight.
