Funke and the Two Tone Baby & Samantics
For the first time, Funke and the Two Tone Baby and Samantics join forces and
head out on a double-headline UK tour.
In November ‘23, Samantics was invited to join Funke as a special guest at the Bristol
show of his album tour. The loopers’ musical output, ethos and fan base complimented
each other’s so well that Samantics was then invited to do the same at three shows
on Funke’s Spring tour earlier this year. Again, the shows brilliantly jelled together in
such a unique way that both Funke and Samantics agreed that more of their fans
should get to experience such a perfect pairing of musical talent. And so, the KAOSS
TOUR ’24 was born...
Two sides of the same coin. Both chaotic and cathartic in different measures. Bright
and energetic. Unhinged and esoteric. Both acts often find themselves compared to
one another, but they are totally different in terms of musical style and performance.
Sure, both artists use a Kaoss pad, but dig deeper and you will find their own unique
set up of samplers, looping stations, triggers, guitars and more enabling them to both
deliver a fresh and unique show. Funke coming from the beats, bass and dance angle
and, Samantics; a more lyrically focused, pull-at-your-heartstrings, laidback affair.
Both shows being utterly brilliant in their own way.
Funke and the Two Tone Baby and Samantics have truly earned their gigging stripes
with a combined gig history of over 22-years. The pair have endlessly toured the UK
and beyond whilst hitting up the very best festivals, such as:
Glastonbury, BoomTown, Beautiful Days, Bearded Theory, Nozstock, Isle of
Wight and many more.
The KAOSS TOUR ‘24 promises to be a unique meeting of musical minds, filled with
the pairs greatest and biggest hits, unforgettable performances, belly laughs, tears,
and your very best dance moves.
