Get ready to groove as Dumpstaphunk brings their electrifying sound to the Sunset Jazz Series on July 28! Known as one of New Orleans’ most powerful live bands, this genre-blending powerhouse delivers an irresistible fusion of funk, soul, rock, and jazz—all performed with raw energy, jaw-dropping musicianship, and unmistakable NOLA spirit.
If you’ve never experienced Dumpstaphunk live, this is your chance to see why they’ve become a cornerstone of 21st-century funk and a must-see on any jazz or jam band lover’s calendar.
Led by the legendary Ivan Neville (yes, of THAT Neville family), Dumpstaphunk is more than just a funk band—it’s a full-force musical movement. The group has graced stages at iconic festivals like Newport Jazz, Bonnaroo, and New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Fest, bringing explosive live sets filled with dual bass lines, tight grooves, and politically charged lyrics that make you move and think.
With deep roots in New Orleans’ funk and R&B traditions, their sound channels everything from The Meters to P-Funk while pushing modern boundaries with grit and soul.
Bring a blanket, your dancing shoes, and good vibes. Food trucks and local vendors may be on-site (check the full series schedule for updates). This is the kind of summer night that turns into a core memory.
