Audiences have been dancing and grooving to Jomama and the Funkdaddys since their formation in 1998. Based out of Utica, NY, the band has played venues from London, Ontario in Canada to the Florida Keys. They have shared the stage with Otiel Burbridge (of the Allman Brothers Band, Otiel and the peacemakers, Aquarium Rescue Unit), and The legendary Wailers.
In 1999 the Funkdaddys performed at the Woodstock festival in Rome, NY, and in 2000 earned a spot in a national magazine. They have recently participated in, and won, a battle of the bands called The Showdown for Moe.down . A huge festival of over 10,000, it was an opportunity to play with such headliners as Moe., Madeski, Martin and Wood, North Mississippi Allstars and The Violent Femmes. The CD in this package is their set from christmas 2005 at the Electric Company in Utica NY.
As seasoned musicians, The Funkdaddys are experienced at pleasing the audience with a range of musical genres. People have come to notice and appreciate the band. The group has a growing sense of support with reoccurring familiar faces at most gigs. This has yielded invitations to interview with local radio stations such as 96.9 WOUR, 94 K-Rock, TK99 and WICB.
