Influenced by a variety of musical genres, combined with the band members unique musical backgrounds, Funktion has created a sound of their own. Their shows wow crowds with hot grooves, choreography, distinct horn lines, original material as well as unique arrangements of some of their favorite covers. Combining the members writing/arranging and composing style it opens up for a "You never know what you'll get." element that promises nothing less than beauty, funk and raw soul.
Since Funktion came together they have so far played concerts, festivals, clubs, and private events in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Connecticut, including numerous performances in Atlantic City. With a band whose members speak five languages fluently, they are not limited to performing in the New York metropolitan area, but wish to reach a broad audience all around the world.
"We couldn't be happier with Funktion 11 for our wedding on 7/4/14. Once we went to see Funktion in person, we knew this was the band for us! The band is so professional and plays every song perfectly, adding their own funky and fun twist. The members have choreographed moves, and the audience gets up to dance to be part of their energy without a cheesy invitation to join. Ronnie was a pleasure to work with and made sure everything was covered—down to each song they would play to confirm we were happy. He understood the feel of the wedding and completely gave us the best day ever! We are still getting calls about what an amazing band and how they made the party!"
--Jillian S
"They are an amazing band and kept the party rocking! My friends and family loved them! They are incredibly talented!"
--Liza A
"On behalf of those we serve, thank you for a job well done!! As this year, our theme was "Unmasking the Faces of Diabetes; A Mardi Gras Ball", your trumpeteers heralding the guests as they arrived was a beautiful touch. During cocktail hour, your jazz quartet was spectacular and when our guests were ready to dance, they were in love! Our guests, our Board, and Committee raved on your outstanding performance. Again, thank you for going above and beyond. Funktion exceeded our expectations and we look forward to having you perform for our next event!"
--Claire A. Ritenour, Market Manager, American Diabetes Association
"Thank you for making our Red Ball evening an amazing success. Your band is (to put it to a musical theme) "Simply The Best!" Everyone raved about your performance. I look forward to working with you again. Please extend our thanks to everyone."
