A Shout Out to Former Members of Blue Funk
Since the demise of Blue Funk two years ago (has it been that long??), former members of the band have been involved in various projects. You should know all too well about what I’ve been up to, so here’s an update on everyone else.
Rebecca and John have formed a band, Westbound, with their album Blackjack Road out now. They call themselves energetic. I don’t think that word is strong enough to describe it (I mean that in a good way). They have been touring regionally to great acclaim.
Phil has joined Sugarball Express, also on Facebook. Everyone who sees them says that this is the perfect band for Phil. It’s some crazy “Country/Rockabilly/Honky Tonk,” y’all.
Tony, our drummer before Phil, is still with The Distracted, the hard rock band that he was playing with while in Blue Funk. They have been through a few line-up changes since then, but are still playing and you can still catch them around town.
And Jeff… well, we love Jeff.
Seriously, Jeff has been focusing on his job that he loves, his four daughters and his wife. I think he has played a little with some people. If something comes of that and he lets me know, I’ll pass it on so you can see him play too.
[Edit: I’ve been reminded that I left out a member of the band, the rock on bass, Lori. She has not been playing with anyone. Instead, she’s working on her master’s degree while continuing to work full time. Hopefully at some point we’ll get her grooving on bass again.]
