Bio / Background
FUNK 101 started off in October of 2003 when Marist College sophomores Dwayne Douglas (drums) and Don Shumen (sax) decided to organize a traditional jazz group. Having learned the drums by playing for his local church, Dwayne came from a strong gospel background. Don, on the other hand, was a strong swing player with quick fingers, and a fan of Charlie Parker. They were powerful players in their own right, but they lacked the people to form a full band.
Enter James Scariati, a jazz pianist with a classical background, and Tom Clancey, a jazz guitarist with a rock soul. Together, they began to cover and arrange funk, jazz, and R&B tracks. Shortly after, they were joined by Seth Rivers, an electric and standup bass player known for his jaw-dropping solos, who had played with Dwayne throughout high school. Finally, R&B singer Erika DeLuna was added to the band, rounding out the lineup and enabling them to further expand their musical horizons.
