February 13, 2008 1:37 pm Funky Events, Funky Music, Hip Hop
Utah needs more funk, and tonight, Salt Lake City is gonna get a heavy dose of funky music. Galactic, an intensely funky band from New Orleans and Chali 2na, the innovative rapper of Jurassic 5 fame will be performing tonight at The Depot in Salt Lake. Ohmega Watts, another versatile, funk-inspired rap artist, will also be in the mix. This show is guaranteed to be a foot-stompin’ good time.
Galactic is a band that’s loaded with talented musicians who can jam out funky licks for hours at a time. Galactic just released their sixth album From the Corner to the Block. It features contributions from many of hip hop’s most talented lyricists — artists like Chali 2na, Gift of Gab, Mr. Lif, Ladybug Mecca, Juvenile, Boots Riley and Lyrics Born.
The doors open at 8 p.m. Tickets are available for $22. The Depot is located on 400 West South Temple in Salt Lake City.
