Big Sams Funky Nation, Bump Foundation

Big Sams Funky Nation is a driving force of urban funk. Ryan White, of the Oregonian, says the band is “tight enough (and hot enough) to turn coal into a diamond!” The band is led by trombone powerhouse, Big Sam Williams, formerly the trombonist for the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, who the San Francisco Chronicle calls “the top man on the slide trombone in the birthplace of jazz.” Big Sam refuses to let the audience sit still. You can catch Big Sams Funky Nation at Jambalaya in Arcata tonight. Also homegrown Humboldt funk with Bump Foundation.
