FUNK THERAPEUTIC MUSIC FROM THE SHORES OF GHANA. FUNK THERAPY
Bio / Background
FUNKMATA is the birth of a new generation of cosmopolitan African musicians namely Robert Bannerman and Roy Aouad.
This new genre of artiste feel that Africa can make its name on the international market with cosmopolitan pop music.
Our music has many flavours to it and is essentially therapeutic in these troubled times.
Evidence of this can be found on Robert's book Pop Poetry at www.xlibris.com/poppoetry.
Our influences date from way back with giants such as Billie Holliday, Charlie Parker, Jimi Hendrix, Gap Band, Rolling Stones, The Doors, Janis Joplin, James Brown, Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett, Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston, Average White Band, Edgar Winters, Prince and of course Quincy Jones.
As mentioned this music cannot be defined as world music nor can one place it as African music. It is FUNK music made by Africans with a cosmopolitan background.
In January 2007 we were chosen as finalists by SOTY songoftheyear.
↓ more ↓com for the instrumental Realpayback and were given a Web Award.
In March 2007 our single Is it True? was chosen for the suggested Artist of the month by SOTY again.
This is just the beginning, since we are aware that Africa wants Trade and not Aid and will relentlessly pursue our business plan until we break on thru' to the other side.
We are convinced at this juncture many will follow in our footsteps and try to make something out of the blue.
We have the belief. We have the faith. We have the power of the mind. Let's make something happen.
We promise to surprise you even more with our second album TRANCELATION.
