The Funky Godfather is a world-class 9-piece showband and
a tribute to the music of James Brown. It’s fronted by one of the most talented
and dynamic performers working the stage today, Cubby Ingram. Cubby’s got it
all: the voice, the moves, the energy and the magic. And just like JB, Cubby’s
backed by a super-funky, super-tight band featuring horns, percussion, and one
of the baddest rhythm sections in the business — true professionals who have
performed all around the world, at iconic soul music venues like the Apollo
Theater and Porretta (Italy) Soul Festival.
This great band sets the stage on fire (and packs the
dance floor) with James Brown’s greatest hits. JB’s storied career spanned over
three decades of American pop music, from the late ’50s all the way into the
early ’90s. The Funky Godfather covers all the favorites: ‘Night Train’,
‘Please Please Please’, ‘Papa’s Got A Brand New Bag’, ’I Feel Good’, ‘This Is A
Man’s World’, ‘Cold Sweat’, ‘I Got The Feelin’, ‘Popcorn’, ‘Try Me’, ‘Sex
Machine’, ‘Super Bad’, ‘Get Up Offa That Thing’, ‘Living In America’ and more.
