Merry Funk Christmas – M-ROCK & WEFUNKY BAND
Merry Funk Christmas
We took our favorite Christmas songs and recorded with the band late September Put down ten tracks with the help of fantastic drummer Eric Bodin and the rest of the Wefunky Band
My brother Topsteen did his magic, working day and night And finally late October the album was finished. I never think I have done such a fast recording of an album, but it was fun, and also almost twenty years since Torsten and I worked together.
We wanted to put some organ filled go go funk feel to the Christmas songs.. inspired by Chuck Brown and Washington Dc, but also Sinatra and those other cats we admire. I feel we added some nice Christmas spice and funky touch to those old songs.. A merry funk Christmas!
