A tribute to the greatest and best band in the world... Tenacious D.
That Dog Was A Band Now have been playing with each other since 2013, despite the fact that they are sometimes separated by thousands of miles of distance. Their unique sound-- which is defined by an active accordion, bad-ass banjo, and honest vocals-- has helped them gain a loyal international fanbase. That Dog Was A Band Now has played 4-hour sets in rough & rural American bars, rocked outdoor weddings for big fans in beautiful California Redwood Forests, been given hour-long featured sets on several public radio stations and mainstage slots at major cultural festivals, and popped up as buskers on all sorts of city streets around Canada, Europe, and the USA.
After a brief hiatus, the band spent the Spring of 2016 reunited in California. That June, they hit the road with their debut (self-titled) EP in hand; recorded in Eureka, California with Timmy Gray of Myrtletown Records. They proceeded to tour the USA and Canada from coast to coast, and then back to the first coast, until late September.
Their 2017 tours were sweet, playing in Sweden, Denmark, Amsterdam, Western Canada, and Germany, and recording their first full-length album, which will be released by Santa Rosa Records.
The 45 is een 4-koppige band (afgestudeerd aan Codarts Conservatorium Rotterdam) met een voorliefde voor Pop & Funk. Covers van o.a. MJ, Prince, Stevie Wonder, Bruno Mars en vele anderen.
Hailing from the North East of England, this fab 5 piece crew first came to my attention thanks to a barnstorming live set at last year's Kippertronix Festival & they repeated the trick with an equally impressive London International Ska Festival appearance at Easter. The angry in-your-face energy of Almighty Uprisers' live show translates really well into the studio too with 6 kick ass anti-establishment anthems that grab your attention right from the get-go & don't let go for an instant. Highly infectious stuff indeed that fans of The Clash, Dirty Revolution & Culture Shock will really enjoy! Definitely one of the most exciting new bands to emerge on the UK scene in many moons! - Do The Dog Skazine

Vier locale muzikanten hebben hun krachten gebundeld met maar een doel: een zo funky mogelijke show in elkaar te flansen. Dansmuziek die alleen ervaren muzikanten, met de onweerstaanbare funk van de jaren zeventig, tachtig en negentig als bindende factor kunnen leveren.
Leadzanger en gitarist Alex Manuputty heeft deze groep helden op weten te trommelen. Met de hulp van toetsenist en vocalist Geronimo, bassist Gijs en drummer Bryan, zullen de mannen het geluid van James, Curtis, Sly, Prince, Michael en vele andere funk-legendes doen herleven. The Waterhole is trots om deel uit te maken van dit gloednieuwe project. Kom dus dansen op de meer dan dertig jaar aan funk!
Atomic Papas is a Neo-Rockabilly, Country and Rock and Roll trio coming from Tuscany. The setlist is made by some originals, a cool selection of classics which were released in the golden era of Rockabilly music and some of the middle 80’s revival era; everything played with an aggressive, “Punky” and “Crunchy” Neorockabilly Sound!!
The Automatic Heroes, een funkband uit Duitsland, brengt de Funky magie van de 70’s naar je toe. The band speelt uitsluitend eigen werk en laat je de hele nacht dansen.
De 4 muzikanten spelen een interessante mix van geschoolde vocalen, jazzy én groovy riffs en een flinke portie Soul.
De band kijkt er naar uit om een feestje te komen bouwen en het publiek te laten dansen. MAY THE FUNK BRING US TOGETHER!
