"TLC is one of the best-selling female groups of all times," said Dana Stoehr, CEO of the San Mateo County Event Center and Fair. "Their music is sharp, smart and sassy and they have a really unique chemistry."

One of the greatest journeys in music history can be summed up by just three letters—TLC.

Those characters merely hint at the talent of Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins, Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas, and the late Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes, but they immediately evoke an unparalleled journey nonetheless. That journey encompasses immortal anthems such as "Waterfalls," "Creep," "No Scrubs," and "Unpretty," to name a few, as well as sales of 70 million records worldwide, four GRAMMY® Awards, two RIAA diamond-certified albums among a total of four multiplatinum albums, ten Top 10 singles, and four Number 1 singles. Meanwhile, the VH1 original film CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story chronicled their rise and broke records as the highest-rated television film premiere of 2013 and the highest-rated original premiere on the network between consistent touring.

"We're still TLC," affirms Tionne. "If it's not broke, don't fix it. We kept the same recipe, which is strong lyrical content and talking about things that affect all of us." "I've always felt a vibe between us," says Chilli. "The chemistry has empowered us to touch so many in a positive way. Even if they don't know us, fans think of us as their homegirls. It's because we believe everything we say and it's relatable."

San Mateo County Fair's 2018 Concert Series final lineup is: Sheila E. (June 9); TLC (June 10); Sugar Ray (June 13), Pablo Cruise (June 14), Average White Band (June 15) and John Michael Montgomery (June 16).  World-renowned Master Illusionist Peter Gossamer will perform on June 11 and 12.
