Redtenbacher's Funkestra

UK based Redtenbacher's Funkestra are the brainchild of bandleader, principal composer/arranger, producer and bassist Stefan Redtenbacher. He is obsessive about creating original music resulting in their formidable output - over 20 records and live perfomances in the US, UK, Germany, Austria, Netherlands, etc. They have collaborated with Funk and Jazz royalty like Lenny Pickett, Fred Wesley, Alfred 'PW' Ellis as well as contemporaries like Eric Krasno, Cory Wong, Benny Greb, Stanton Moore and the horn sections of Prince, Tower of Power, Incognito and Brand New Heavies. During the last five years they have also operated as the studio band for the 'Masterlink Sessions' and have cut hundreds of songs for artists in a wide range of genres from Psychedelic Rock to Americana and Country. Deeply commited to recording the band live in the studio they always have one foot in soul and the other in jazz funk and associated genres.
