Funk Ensemble
SLUFunk plays music from American R&B and other musics of the African diaspora. It is modeled on a working band: participants make decisions about membership, repertoire, and performances, and are expected take on necessary tasks from engineering recordings to writing arrangements to lugging gear.
Rehearsals
- Sundays, 6:15-7:45pm, and Thursdays, 7-8:30pm, in the Launders Underground (Noble Center 001)
Performance Dates
- To be negotiated by the band
Auditions
- beginning Sunday, January 19
We currently seek a keyboard player, a percussionist, and a trumpet player, in addition to two female vocalists, one of whom is a high (or coloratura) soprano (i.e., can you sing the last verse of Beyoncé's "Love on Top"?).
To audition, or if you have any questions, contact director Larry Boyette.
