Over the past 17 years, Dumpstaphunk has earned its reputation as the most well-regarded, next-generation New Orleans live powerhouse, the type of band whose live shows attract sit-ins from legends like Carlos Santana, Bob Weir, Trombone Shorty, members of Phish and Dave Matthews Band amongst many others.

Dumpstaphunk’s founding members Ivan Neville (vocals/keyboards) Ian Neville (guitar) Tony Hall (bass/guitar/vocals) and Nick Daniels (bass/vocals) along with newest members Alex Wasily (trombone) and Deven Trusclair (drums), have built upon the Neville family’s iconic NOLA legacy, as they’ve transformed into the city’s pre-eminent 21st-century funk-fusion export, after being birthed originally from a spontaneous set during New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival

Ghost-Note are a percussion-based funk, hip hop and jazz group[1] from Dallas, Texas,[2] with a rotating membership based around founding drummer Robert “Sput” Searight and founding percussionist Nate Werth, two members of the jazz band Snarky Puppy.
