Gumbo Productions

Rocking with all things funky

About Me

What we at Gumbo Productions are about – and always have been about, ever since our first ever wing-ding, on a fresh Thursday night in Clapham back in February 2004 - is keeping the funk alive. You know, the bass and the drums, what makes your hips shake and your booty quake.Since then, the two masterminds behind the colossus that is Gumbo - silver-fingered troubadours Pete O’Brien and Andy Brassell - have spread their funky word beyond their South London manor, throughout the capital.Gumbo is going to be continuing its relentless march towards world domination this year, with the launch of GUMBO LIVE at the Dogstar on Good Friday 6th April, a rip-roaring DJs plus bands event - find out more at myspace.com/gumboisnowlive. WE will see YOU there.Mixes from the Gumbo DJs can be heard on our blog or on our website, where you can also check a full Gumbo bio and gigography, in English, French and soon in Spanish and Portuguese: www.gumboproductions.co.uk MyGen Profile Generator
