Brazilian percussion locked into heavyweight funk grooves, a brass section with serious bite, and vocalist Kay Elizabeth holding it all together with a voice that fills any room – that’s The Fontanas.
Backed by musicians who have played alongside Incognito and Alice Russell, The Fontanas have found the sweet spot between tight funk grooves and swinging Latin rhythms.
Expect to be entertained Carnival-style!
Doors open from 7pm allowing you plenty of time to settle in, and enjoy some delicious food and drinks before the show starts at 8pm.
