Funke and the Two Tone Baby

Funke and The Two Tone Baby is a live act in which Funke builds the music on a machine of their own making. The concert takes place at the Voodoo Rooms in Edinburgh.

The music of Funke and The Two Tone Baby is built on a machine created by Funke, and mixes off-kilter garage beats with touches of hip-hop, alongside high-energy alternative blues and a strand of funk. The result is a fast-moving blend of glitches, heavy drops and lifting choruses. Comparisons drawn in the material include Fatboy Slim, The White Stripes, LCD Soundsystem and IDLES, which places the style between dance, rock and electronic reference points.

Funke's fifth studio album, Greebling, extends this approach with tighter production, a closer link to dance music and a wider range of instruments, including synths, drum machines and harmonicas. It also moves from acoustic guitar to electric. Beans on Toast and Samantics appear as guests on the record, which was produced by Binge of Dutty Moonshine Big Band.

The Voodoo Rooms is a venue hosting concerts and shows in Edinburgh. The evening will suit anyone curious about a sound that brings together electronic production, blues and funk in a single live performance.
