12-21-25 Funktapuss with Siobhan Magnus performed at The Alley. Funktapuss is a Cape Cod funk band known for its energetic live shows, featuring core members like Latez Crawley (Vocals), Ryan Tivey(Sax/Keys/Vocals), Tom Davis (Guitar), Brad Conant (Drums), and Daniel "Dan" Fowler (Bass), often with other saxophonists like Patrick McDonough joining the lineup to deliver smooth, dancy hits.
They're a groove factory that has toured the United States, churning out funk, soul, and R&B classics by the likes of Stevie Wonder, Tower of Power, Bruno Mars, James Brown, and many more. It’s no secret that Funktapuss keeps the dance floor full all night – or afternoon – long, from bars, to parties, to festivals. Start with soulful vocals, add a slamming rhythm section, and throw in the Full Force Horns…and you’ve got yourself a party.
It would’ve cost you a $5 donation or 2 cans of food and you would’ve had a free buffet dinner plus the music and free bowling and other free stuff. Thanks Pixy 103. Best Party EVER! You need to follow Funktapuss right now so that you know when their shows are and the next time Siobhan is playing with them. They are local Cape Cod DoGooders, who will also play your party, venue or event and deliver an awesome experience.
“Whole Lotta Love” by Led Zeppelin
MUST LISTEN - Siobhan doing Whole Lotta Love. Wow! You should’ve seen the live 6 minute version.
“Proud Mary” by John Fogerty
Siobhan can use her gifts on any song and she makes them magical. The joy that comes out of her music is real and pure and is like a ray of sunshine and a blessing. It’s who she is!
“Signed,Sealed, Delivered (I’m Yours)” by Stevie Wonder
Latez Crowley shares the lead graciously with Siobhan, not only on this song, but for the entire evening. He is a great showman and singer and a class act who puts his ego aside without hesitation. That’s obviously who he is.
“Ain’t Nobody” by Rufus and Chaka Kahn
“Sir Duke” by Stevie Wonder
This song shows off the musicianship of all of the band members, and they are all first rate. Six regular members welcoming our local legend singer with the backdrop of a bowling alley and people allowed to play. Nobody was phased because they are all Cape Codders like us and it was a fabulous party and concert.
“I Will Survive” by Gloria Gaynor
MUST LISTEN! Siobhan is still performing and entertaining us. She is someone who will survive and you absolutely feel it when she sings this song. It’s important that she and Funktapuss know that we will always have their backs and you can show that by seeing them and by booking them for your events. It’s just that simple, support local musicians.
“Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)” by Mariah Carey
You have not heard this version of Mariah’s song - it is unbelievable. The saxophone becomes like an entire person singing and Siobhan just takes everything to another level even Mariah - no fear.
Hat tip to Dave Courier & the team at The Alley along with Lori and Pixie 103 for being there and supporting local music. Thank you to all of the vendors that were supplying so many goodies, Oh what a night! Follow Funktapuss now - don’t miss the next one.
