You guys were great – really got everyone up & dancing & were a complete pleasure to deal with during communications & especially on the night.
We booked Funk Star for our annual street party this year. Within minutes they had the crowd in the palm of their hands, cheering and up dancing. They have great energy on stage and are a truly professional team. We will definitely book them again next year.
