February 18 ... THE Funk-N-Soul Party!

It is that time once again when the masses gather to get it on with THE Funk-N-Soul Dance Party!

It has been freakin cold out there with the snow and ice, but you know you're gonna get warm with some Northern Soul. Need to break? Then get with the Rare Groove. Need to be sweatin hard? Then get your booty shakin to the Deep Funk. We want you to be superfly, so Funkdefy is gonna have it all on HOT wax!

So Remember ...

18 and up is the age. 10PM is the time and NO COVER is the cost for you to dance, groove, shake & shimmy!

We have special guest C.J. TOWNSEND adding more hot wax to the collective!

Get in early for some Clever Crow. That kitchen puts out incredible tasty treats!

Prepare to be well funked ... Righteous!!!

February 26 ... THE BUDOS BAND!

People have begged for years, and now the time has finally come as BenCo Presents THE BUDOS BAND with Funkdefy! This is a show you must not miss. Prepare yourself for an all out audio assult as you are thoroughly funked by one of the hardest hitting, soul scorching, beat driven bands out of New York. They will be backed by the greatest collection of hot funky wax by Columbus' own Funkdefy.

A little history ...

Back in 2007, Funkdefy was honored to have The Budos Band as special guest to what would be the start of a series of Funk-N-Soul Dance Parties with live bands in the mix. This show was legendary here in C-Bus, receiving the Concert of the Year nod from The Other Paper.

Now the encore has finally arrived ... get to Outland to be righteously funked!
