Long Island is loaded with great tribute bands. But many of the members of Funk Filharmonik are actually alumni of one of the bands whose music they’ve been playing all these years: Tower of Power (T.O.P.). Vocalists Tom Bowes and Brent Carter, as well as saxophonist John Scarpulla, toured and recorded with T.O.P. for several years. Drummer and bandleader Lee Finkelstein was called as a substitute to cover the T.O.P. northeast tour and Ozzie Melendez, trombonist and musical director for Funk Filharmonik, has written songs for T.O.P.
Now, after 20+ years this in-demand group of top shelf musicians has finally put together a record of all original music that’s a combination of slick retro 70’s horn driven funk-soul R&B with jazz players’ chops and the precise arrangements characteristic of a Latin jazz band.
