Get Funked Band Exclusive Showcase at Under The Bridge, London
On Friday 4th November, premium Funk and Soul band Get Funked hosted an exclusive showcase at West London's new state-of-the-art music venue 'Under The Bridge', located at Chelsea Football Club. Nick, Laura and Kyle from Alive Network travelled down to London to catch the show and relay the event's highlights in our latest Excellent Events blog.
On Friday 4th November 2011, the UK’s finest Funk and Soul corporate event band Get Funked hosted an exclusive showcase at London’s latest live music venue Under The Bridge.
Owned by Chelsea’s Roman Abramovich, Under The Bridge is a stylish, state-of-the-art space situated underneath Chelsea football ground Stamford Bridge. Home to celebrity aftershow parties, press launches, fashion shoots, corporate entertainment, live broadcasts and more, artists such as Beyonce, Ellie Goulding, Jamie Cullum, Kaiser Chiefs and James Morrison have graced the stage.
An audience of 500+ turned up to watch Get Funked take to the stage and with all 13 members oozing soul, class and unbelievable musical ability, no-one left disappointed.
The band kicked things off with their relaxed acoustic repertoire covering tracks such as Empire State Of Mind by Alicia Keys and Ordinary People by John Legend.
Later on into the night, Get Funked picked up the pace and soon filled the dance floor with their mixture of Pop, Soul and Funk favourites. Their set list included material from Aretha Franklin, Cee Lo Green, Stevie Wonder and many other party classics that left the audience begging for more.
The sell out show not only delivered an ultimate live music experience but also raised money for Get Funked’s charity of the year “War Child”!
The guys were on great form, professional, slick and energetic! They were great to watch and they certainly know how to fill a dance floor and keep it filled. A top band in all respects!"
