FUNKSION

About Me

(funk•sion) is the definition of concentrated energy. A four piece modern rock band out of Virginia Beach, VA, this explosive group of men will send any audience home happy. For the last three years, (funk•sion) has unmercifully set the standard for talent, playing venues from the Hampton Roads area, Richmond to North and South Carolina, Maryland and Delaware with their sites set for the rest of the country. They have quickly distinguished themselves in this competitive market with their brilliant songwriting abilities and superb musicianship.Lyrically, (funk•sion) stands out among the rest of the rock bands with their vocalists aggressive attack on life matters. Their songs capture audiences with melodic vocal hooks, aggressive guitar work and hypnotizing rhythmic harmony. It’s easy to see the immense talent of each member and what they bring to the table. Among the four members, they have an incredibly diverse musical background and aren’t afraid to throw something out there and see how it is received. With their creative original songs, (funk•sion) captures the audience’s attention from the first line and doesn’t give it back until closing time!The distinct and dynamic stage presence of (funk•sion) rivals any band. For a live performance they leave nothing to be desired. This band has fun on stage and their energy is infectious. The band has also been invited to showcase at spots outside of the area including venues in North Carolina, Delaware, Maryland and S. Carolina. After months of regular airplay on Ocean City, MD radio station X106.9, the guys were invited to play several radio-hosted spots in Delaware and Maryland. They have also been spotlighted countless times on the radio in the Hampton Roads area on FM99’s Homegrown, MaxFM’s Local’s Lounge and radio plugs on 96X as well as 98X in North Carolina. (funk•sion) is a band ready to change the face of rock throughout the world, continually making their name among venues and attracting new fans.
