Get Funky

Little Rock is filled with talent, and it’s our joy to highlight the incredible artists who make this city great. Today, we celebrate The Funkanites.

• 🪩 Funk with a Twist – This eight-piece band blends ‘60s and ‘70s Afrobeat, soul, and funk with a fresh, modern edge. Expect bold brass, deep grooves, and rhythms so good you can’t stand still. 🕺 

• 🎷 A Live Show You’ll Feel – The Funkanites can turn any venue into a dance floor. If you love music that moves you, this is the band to see.

Catch them live and experience it for yourself. It’s a vibe.
