Bozeman band the Sweet Groovalicious Funk Machine specializes in good times, playing “retro funk and soul with some ‘funkified’ versions of modern hits thrown in – all to get you up to get down.” Featuring a core group of experienced pro players, the funk band is all about the groove and all about the fun.
With a heavy dose of James Brown and Motown, they’re not afraid to throw in a few funky twists on modern hits – and not above a few chunks of cheesy lounge disco. This is a party band, a get off your butt and dance band, a here to pay some respect to the grooves of yesterday band. When it’s time for lettin’ it all hang out, it’s time to turn on the Sweet Groovalicious Funk Machine.
