I can't say enough great things about Funk Almighty!

I can't say enough great things about Funk Almighty! We had Funk Almighty play at our wedding and they were easily the highlight of the night. The energy, song selection, and sheer talent were unbelievable! Daryl, the band manager, is highly communicative and helped tailor music for every aspect of our day; we had an acoustic guitar for our ceremony, a jazz ensemble for cocktail hour, and their 10-person band for the reception. We also used Funk Almighty's MC service for the evening and Jared did a fantastic job ensuring the events stayed on schedule. What sets Funk Almighty apart from other bands is their energy, they had everyone on the dance floor! Our guests raved about the music and I can confidently say they were right, Funk Almighty is the best!

We absolutely loved them!

We hired Funk Almighty for our wedding on 9/3/23, and we absolutely loved them! We got so many compliments from our guests on how great they were. They kept the dance floor going all night long and were so easy to work with throughout the entire planning process. Highly recommend!

Pleasure to work with!

Peyton and his friends were a pleasure to work with and most importantly were very entertaining. We are very fortunate to have such a great group of musicians here in Bloomington for our community events. Music was fabulous.
