BROOKLYN FUNK ESSENTIALS

Monday 11th October 2021

Between recording six studio albums (the most recent dropping in August 2019), the Essentials have made a name for themselves as absolutely electric performers, exhilarating their loyal and adoring fanbase with performances across every continent.
