Joe Senger grew up listening to Funk & R&B music in Baltimore, Md. He always had a passion for the FUNK, ever since he was a little boy and first heard his older brothers band rehearsing in the basement of their rowhouse in North East Baltimore/ Clifton Park Area. Not to mention the early pioneers like James Brown, Sly and the Family Stone, Funkadelic to name a few. Joe went on to play in his brothers original band called "LEAF" which was a Funk/Rock band mixing styles like Zeppelin, P-Funk, James Brown, Grand Funk into their own style. He also has recorded several original projects of his own including "Stranded Max", "The Distractions", and most recently Drumming & Recording with Paul Marko's Original Jacksonville Based Rock Band "747". The name changed to Gasoline 67,and Joe recently recorded several tracks for the upcoming CD Time to Rock. But Joe's passion for Funk continues to come alive in his writings, song styling and feel... This new project features some of the best talent in the Jacksonville area, and I'm sure you will agree... What do these Musicians bring to FCF of FUNK? Brady Clampitt - is one of the First Coasts brightest upcoming talents, he has a great sense of groove, feel,and blues based leads. I really feel like we feed off of each other and take each other to a different level. He is also putting together a Cd of his originals to be released soon. Jay "the dash" Johnson - is also someone you will be hearing about for years to come, whether he is playing with Fusebox Funk, Solo, or producing another artist. His Talent is without question top notch. When he enters the room, he locks right in and is ready to create. Patrick Evan McMillan - is very soulful and a great talent here in the Jacksonville area for many years, his soulful style bleeds the feel of classic performers from years gone by. Tom Rowe - is a great talent from the Ohio area, Tom and I have built a great sense of playing over the years and he is one of the best Sax players in this area right now. Deejay Capone - is one of the top DJ's in this area, and he has a great sense of timing and feel for making great tracks come alive. His Drummer vs DJ act fills clubs and events all over the states. Brian Hicks - (recording engineer) this project would not have been possible without the time and talents of Brian. I met Brian while giging at The Jacksonville Landing, he is a great person and his talent and passion for music are at a very high level. Joe Senger - being able to write & produce a project like this one and have all these great talents come together is great. The other thing I would like to note, for the most part the performers did not hear much of the music before they came to record. This was not really done for any reason other than time. But I feel it worked out for the best because everyone had to put it on the line when they walked in to the sessions.
