Our promise is this, regardless of your age, if you got the moves and grooves and want to channel your inner "funkasaurus" – "She Funk" will bring the Soul Train dance line to you so you can strut your stuff in style. The "She Funk" name was derived from "P-Funk", or "Parliament Funkadelic," pure funk music which is now considered to be a genre in its own right. The vision for She Funk is to bring the best of pure funk from the 70's and 80's, with strong women fronting the band, and feature the NH Seacoast's finest talent. The 12-piece band boasts a 5-piece horn, 4-piece rhythm section, 2 back-up vocalists and a lead singer. "She Funk" has the versatility to perform as a full 12-pc band with a big punch for your special events or re-configure our line-up to meet your needs for smaller venues and occasions. This formidable group has few musical boundaries, especially given the cross-section of players, with both seasoned members and fresh contemporaries in the music scene. "She Funk" collectively has a broad range of experience with members who have toured extensively and performed with renowned artists. Some have managed highly sought-after variety bands within the public and private markets (corporate functions, weddings, and parties). And several are respected, professional music instructors and teachers in the Seacoast area. When you stir this pot of talent, it reflects in the songlist, robust with horns, harmonies and bangin' solos. Love horns? Earth Wind and Fire, Tower of Power, Kool & The Gang, Ohio Players, and the Average White Band will scratch that itch. Do female funk heavy hitters get you moving?
