Bio
You're stunned by a quick bap-bap-BAP combination from the horns, then knocked out with a monstrous steam-roller groove. The electric 12-piece juggernaut simply overwhelms the stage. Four sizzling percussionists provide the intense afro-beat foundation on which funky percolating guitars and thunderous bass drive. Then BAM! Those five horners kick in with an epic, blow-your-face-off, leave-you-out-of-breath assault that puts your mind in a daze and your ass in a craze. With Five Alarm Funk on the stage no one is left standing still!
Based in Vancouver, Five Alarm Funk has packed in over 600 fans at local clubs such as Richard's on Richards. The band has also toured throughout B.C. playing at large festivals to thousands of people. Five Alarm Funk is currently at work in the studio editing a live DVD filmed at Richards and recording material for a CD. The group is also looking forward to a showcase at the Western Canadian Music Awards in October.
Keep the funk alive!
