If You Like Funk: Check Out Vulfpeck

Some exciting new bands listed here. I enjoy funk from EWF to many jazz artists. Here are a few of my favorites;
Eric Lindell- Change in the Weather- This NOLA guy is awesome.
Papa Grows Funk- just pick an album. I prefer the live ones.
Greyboy Allstars- Live- is my favorite. Karl Denson, the sax player who fronts these guys, has several solo albums out with his Tiny Universe band. I saw them a couple of months ago doing Allman Bros. covers and it was fantastic. He plays with the Stones as well.

Chazro’s mention of Maceo Parker made me think of this.  Check out drummer Kenwood Dennard!

Thinking about this genre further, last night I pulled out Soul Summit- Live at Berk’s Place. This is another Karl Denson project that is great party music featuring the old Stax sound. Here is a youtube clip of the highlights

Sons of Champlin - https://youtu.be/jNvfR74jnFM
...and one that may or may not fit here but...saw this band many times back in the day but never saw this video.  Excuse the poor video quality, but the band's having a blast and playing their butts off.  Turn it Up!!!;)
