R.B.FUNKESTRA

The ingredients of this infectious ensemble are one American, one English, one Israeli and one German of Indian origin, under the leadership of an Austrian, to serve up what is cheekily known amongst them as 'Strudelfunk'!

I bowled up at Abbey Fest last night prepared to be underwhelmed by the R.B.Funkestra's Strudelfunk, but let me be the first to put my hand up and say that they were fantastic. Let's be honest if you can get the peeps up and dancing in the rain at an outdoor evening gig in London then you gots to have the funk and perhaps the fonk as well, even if you need to improve the copy on the promo material you cheekily serve up.

Here, for your further edification is the website of the strudelmeister.

(P.S. If anyone caught the name of the singer with the band last night, please let me know so that I can try and catch him perform again.)
