Celebration (2022) by EMRIK

Third funk album from the troglodyte giants from Sweden. M-Rock & Wefunky Band blend tight go go funk, inspired and appreciated from Washington Dc, but with their own special Swedish smorgas funk. Boogie tracks, and heavy funk like the burner Larry, and Stomp your feet. Johanna Hjort shines on the sweet Tenderness, and Gonzo Reyes spits on Cashbah, and Ordinary funk people. Wefunky band consists of bonafide 100% funk fans from Sweden, dedicated to spread the word of funk and happiness! The best Swedish funk album, and M-Rock’s finest moment! The album is released on all digital platforms as well as vinyl and cassette versions. Mixed by Peter Opolopo Major
