New Orleans has a new supergroup and its name tells you upfront what it's all about - Funk Monkey. Their untamed grooves showcase second-line funk, soul, & boogaloo that'll move your feet and feed your soul.

In 2013, Bonerama's Greg Hicks and Bert Cotton brought together a few friends willing to commit to building something special, something different than the other popular groups they’ve played with. Greg's powerful trombone and Bert's tasty guitar are complemented by some of the Big Easy's finest - Brad Walker (Sturgill Simpson/ Ana Popavic) on sax, Rik Fletcher (Smilin' Myron) on keyboards, David Pomerleau (Johnny Sketch) on bass, and Eddie Christmas (John Cleary) on drums.

What's remarkable is how quickly these guys have moved from sounding like a super-jam mashup to being a tight-knit unit with a sound all their own. Performances at French Quarter Festival, Oak Street PoBoy Festival, Mid-City Bayou Boogaloo, Wednesdays @ the Square, Wednesdays on the Point (Algiers), Tipitina's, and weekly residencies at the Blue Nile and the Maple Leaf have definitely helped the process, but their close camaraderie off the stage is also an essential part of their success.

In Arséne DeLay’s voice, you will find the crystal clarity of Ella Fitzgerald crossed with the power of Etta James. The youngest of the Boutté Family, one of the musical dynasties of New Orleans, takes her roots in jazz and soul and combines it with rock and roll, captivating the attention of fans of otherwise exclusive genres.

Partnering with Threadhead Records, and CSB Roxy Music, DeLay's debut solo album, Comin’ Home, chronicles her journey on the road, looking the world over to find out the life she wanted was waiting in New Orleans, where it all began. This album is a refreshing representation of what can be defined as “New Orleans Music.”
