Five Alarm Funk - Live from the Commodore Ballroom '2021

Tracks list

Hot, sweaty dance floors with feet stomping and every body moving. Grooves for
days. Monster horns, crushing percussion and shredding psych-rock guitars.
These are among the elements that make up the Five Alarm Funk experience. The
Vancouver-based band is eight men strong and over a decade deep into a career
that has seen it release five acclaimed albums and burn up stages across the
country on six national tours. And this vehicle isn’t about to slow down.
In fact, Five Alarm Funk is just picking up steam. Set to release their 6th
studio album, Sweat, on March 3, 2017, Sweat gets right to the roots of what
Five Alarm Funk is all about. Epic, intense arrangements, heavy groove and a ton
of fun.
Don’t be fooled by the name: there’s more to Five Alarm Funk than,
well, funk. Just ask drummer Tayo Branston, who says that, although they are
rooted in the style that gives the outfit its name, he and his bandmates thrive
on being able to transcend that genre by seamlessly mixing in elements of Gypsy
rock, Latin music, ska, and even prog-metal. “I would say that it’s
intense, passionate, and fun, genre-spanning music that really anybody can get
onboard with,” Tayo says. “It’s got such an array of
different sounds, and you can tell that each player has his own individual take
and input into each track.”
