Some seriously funky groups come in Five’s - The Jackson 5, The MC 5, Jurassic 5… and of course Fort Knox Five.

Fort Knox Five is known for bending genres and using a broad range of musical elements in their creation of highly original music. This approach ultimately pioneered a funky scene where FK5 continues to top charts today.

Forget about tempos and genres, let Fort Knox Five take you on a musical journey that unites the funk, soul, jazz, hip hop and electronic generations.

good is a Berlin based post-everything rock band (in other words 'indie') who got together with the "soul" purpose of playing good songs well. It's been trying to live up to at least half of this statement ever since. most of the songs aren't too funny, perhaps sadly ironic, and hopefully good enough.
