The Funkanauts
2023-06-23 19:00 - 22:00 | Historic Brookdale Lodge, 11570 Highway 9, Brookdale, CA, 95007, United States
The Historic Brookdale Lodge and Mountain Music Productions present the legendary outfit, The Funkanauts on Friday, June 23 from 7:00 to 10:00 pm.
The Funkanauts was founded by guitarist Jason Collins in the Berkeley-Oakland area in the mid-80s when Collins bonded with bassist Ace Allan. They began performing in clubs and festivals throughout the Bay Area and California. They’ve also toured abroad and opened for national touring bands like Tower Of Power, Ohio Players and Atlantic Starr and others.
The band has broken up and reformed since then and emerged from the COVID pandemic with a renewed sense of purpose. This purpose is evident in their new recording, BASIC INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE LEAVING EARTH (B.I.B.L.E.); considered a modern funk classic. Collins has also extended the Funkanauts legacy with the inclusion of his son, Kyle, on drums. They are also joined by longtime percussionist Rick Campbell.

Rebelskamp
2023-06-17 19:00 - 22:00 | Historic Brookdale Lodge, 11570 Highway 9, Brookdale, CA, 95007, United States
Historic Brookdale Lodge and Mountain Music Productions present Rebelskamp on Saturday, June 17 from 7:00 to 10:00 pm.
Rebelskamp is a band from San Jose, CA that hit the music scene in 2011, when they decided to take the “Natasha’s Garage Sessions” (a weekly psychedelic improv jam-night held in a friend’s haunted Garage) to the main stages of San Jose, the Bay Area, and beyond. The core members have remained the same since inception, with a few minor changes through the years. The current Rebelskamp line-up consists of the 3 Huelsenkamp brothers – Jesse aka Gee Willikers (vocals/guitar), Jeremiah Lee aka Verse (bass guitar/background vocals/etc), and Justin (synth/samples/effects), Juan Maserati (keys), and features Kenny Bundy (sax), and Phil Zigs of Relapse (lead guitar).
Stylistically, their music has a genre of its own, because of its fluid nature. The vibe is known to fluctuate from Funk to Psychedelic Rock to Blues, and Soul, and the players pull from elements of Hip-Hop, Reggae Dub, and Jazz, managing to seamlessly blend moods, influences, and sounds into one. Rebelskamp is known to play off of the energy of the crowd, while conjuring new culminations and creating a sound to suit the environment, like chameleons of music.
Rebelskamp prides themselves on their impromptu and unwritten jam style, the core basis of their spontaneous songwriting, fueled by improvisation. Very much like Jazz players where one member starts a creative idea, with no script, the next one builds on that, and thus, songs are created out of thin air, like magic, without much discussion. The result is a beautiful, timeless sonic landscape, with a fresh vintage, funky, yet hard-hitting sound. With Gee Willikers’ high-pitched, vibrato-laden, falsetto voice lacing over slap-bass riffs and keyboard grooves, with solid drum-beats and spaced-out sound effects and textures, and signature sax, Rebelskamp has made a huge mark in their local scene, and is now poised to make even bigger moves.

Experience the swingin’ sounds of Los Gatos based Gypsy Jazz band, Djangatos at the Kuumbwa Jazz Center in Santa Cruz on Sunday, June 4, 2023. The trio performs from 6:00 to 8:00 pm.
Tickets $30/adv: www.eventbrite.com/e/djangatos-at-kuumbwa-jazz-center-tickets-623957944007
Don’t miss this intimate mid- 20th century dance hall jazz experience. Period dress and dance shoes a must!
“Djangatos is a Los Gatos based acoustic trio that plays in the improvisational, fiercely rhythmic and lyrical style of Jean “Django” Reinhardt, the Belgian-born guitarist and composer who is celebrated for elevating so-called “gypsy jazz” to a wildly popular dance music form. The Djangatos ultra traditional hot club sound is a banquet of complimentary nuances, warm and smooth, the lead guitar plectrum-forward, technically exquisite, expressive and nimble. The rhythm role serves up the bounce, the driving cadence that puts the thang in the swang. The bass sews the melody and rhythm together providing the heartbeat, occasionally occupying the fast lane with hard-swinging leads. The Djangatos trio features two acoustic guitars, Robert Alan Witmeyer on lead and Ron La France on rhythm, and standup bass featuring some of the area’s best musicians including go-to pro Dan Robbins and star pupil Tanner Hallinan. Playing lively sets at familiar venues throughout the San Francisco Bay Area and Santa Cruz as a way to preserve the music and memory of Django, Stéphane, and the Quintett, these hep cats lay down some shimmering sharps and flats” – San Lorenzo Valley Post
