From Deadline
Alfa Anderson, who lent her lead vocals to the seminal, Grammy Hall of Fame-inducted Chic track “Le Freak,” has died at the age of 78.
“Thank you for everything,” Nile Rodgers, who co-founded the 1970s disco band alongside Bernard Edwards, wrote in an Instagram tribute shared earlier this week. “RIP Alfa Anderson. CHIC Organization. Forever loved ❤️🙏🏽,” he added in the video post set to the group’s “At Last I Am Free” (on which Anderson lent her voice), featuring images of the two musical colleagues.
A cause of death has not been given.

Rest in paradise Sister Anderson.
THIS MAKES ME SAD. I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS A LITTLE ONE MY MOTHER SINGING ALONG TO "GOOD TIMES" IN HER OLD MODELED RIVIERA CAR & ME SITTING ON THE ARMREST WATCHING MY MOTHER MATCH MS. ALFA ANDERSON'S VOICE WORD FOR WORD & ME TRYING TO REMEMBER & RECITE THE LYRICS TOO..
NOW THEY BOTH GONE WAY TOO SOON.
REST PEACEFULLY, MS. ALFA ANDERSON.
I THINK I'LL LISTEN TO SOME CHIC MUSIC LATER ON TODAY IN BOTH YOURS & MY MOTHER'S (WHO LOVED THE GROUP BEFORE SHE GOT SAVED) MEMORY.
