Earth, Wind & Fire drummer John Paris is the band member who suffered a medical emergency that forced the group to postpone its San Francisco concert ... sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ.
We're told none of the group's three longtime members -- Philip Bailey, Verdine White and Ralph Johnson -- were involved.
The San Francisco Fire Department told TMZ ... a fire engine and private ambulance responded to the venue for a cardiac incident, and one person was transported to a local hospital in critical condition.
Paris' current condition is unclear.
As we reported, Earth, Wind & Fire postponed its Thursday night show with Lionel Richie at San Francisco's Chase Center after a band member suffered a medical emergency.
The concert was called off shortly before the performers were set to take the stage.
We've reached out to reps for Earth, Wind & Fire for comment ... so far, no word back.
