Stanley Nelson's syncopated voyage through the history of funk music, from early roots to 1970s urban funk and beyond.
About this Event

WE WANT THE FUNK! is a syncopated voyage through the history of funk music, spanning from African, soul, and early jazz roots, to its rise into the public consciousness. Featuring James Brown's dynamism, the extraterrestrial funk of George Clinton's Parliament Funkadelic, transformed girl group Labelle, and Fela Kuti's Afrobeat, the story also traces funk's influences on both new wave and hip-hop.

Stay with us after the 1-hour film for a funk music celebration!

Music by Bianka and Sabreen from the KRCB all-vinyl radio show, Cute Radio. Vintage/fun and funky fashions by Strange Constellation. Wear your funky fashions and we'll have prizes!
