Based in the West Coast of Florida, Joseph Thomas Sardo aka ‘The Funky Munky Band’ is a full sounding band that combines a ton of guitar playing prowess with passionate pro voice as well as a fun and energetic presentation. Solo guitar/Ukelele and full tracks.
Many different musical styles are available to fit a broad range of events. The Funky Munky Band can play soft cocktail or dinner music in the background (examples are Sinatra, Luis Armstrong, Tony Bennett, Elvis, Beatles, etc), as well as a full sounding tropical, Motown, and Classic Rock dance presentation.

The mix of music is Classic Rock, Country, the Fifties, and today’s hits; from the Beatles to Motown to seventies singer-songwriters such as America. Your audience will sing along and have fun as Joe entertains. The band uses the best state of the art Bose PA system and top of the line pro equipment. Joe brings many years of professional performing experience. You will be impressed with his pro attitude and look. Being on time means being early.

Pam

Been thinking about the program you gave us at the Englewood United Meth. women’s cookie luncheon !  We had such a great time !  Thanks so much for all the energy you brought to our group!  Pam, Pres. EUMW

“We have been coming to Englewood for thirty years and I don’t think I’ve been to this place for ten years.    The food was always okay but a bit pricey.    Now they have added the downstairs (I’m leaving the name out). So we decided to give it another shot.    They have decorated the area with festivals cute signes.   The night we went they had a band called Funky Munky or something like that and we’re BIG fans………”.  They preceeded to trash the restaurant but you got the point!

Pete

Cheers

Marie and Ed
