For over a decade, Funk You enchanted audiences with an unmistakably intoxicating blend of modern and vintage sound. Comprised of eight kindred spirits from Georgia, – Gavin Hamilton (Lead Vocals), Evan Miller (Guitar), William Foster (Vocals, Keys), Will Clark (Vocals, Drums), Mark ‘Earl’ Dykes(Vocals, Bass), Gnarly G (Saxophone, Flute), Josh Spilliards(Trombone, Sousaphone), and Geoff Wood (Trumpet, Guitar) – this close-knit troupe is driven by an unwavering passion for live performance and emboldened by their own exuberance – making them one of the most electrifying acts in contemporary funk.
The octet’s journey began in 2011 with the release of Funk You, quickly followed by its companion album Funk You II (released 2012). This early material laid the groundwork for the growth of a ravenous grassroots fan base in the southern US.
Opening the show is Jelly. Jelly deftly crosses up the genres of funk, rock, jazz-fusion and soul to imbue their original music with an unforgettable mix of crackling riffs, memorable hooks, psychedelic grooves, and strong technical chops.
Matt Kampe – vocals, saxophone, keys, flute
Connor Oyster – vocals, bass

This show is 21+.
