My middle names are Helena Charlotte, which is why I have chosen Lena Lottie for my music. I have been writing and composing, both on guitar and piano, since 2003 and thought it was about time I did something about my work. I hope you enjoy my songs. Thanks for listening!

FUNK PUMPKINS are a funk rock band from Birmingham. The quartet was formed in 2012 and is comprised of Tariq Bhatty (vocals), Elliot Smith (bass), Harry Wainwright (guitar) and Charlie Drennan (drums).

The band’s sound is driven by a melodic bass line augmented with funky, rhythmic guitar grooves and a hard hitting back beat. They possess a flair for unusual rhythm changes and flamboyant guitar solos, while the lyrics are quirky, metaphorical, and tell a story.

Frontman Tariq  said, “Our songs are about real days, real times and real people. We try not to take things too seriously. We play funky, good-time music, the kind that people can dance to.”

Funk Pumpkins have carved a small niche for themselves on the local live circuit, including numerous performances at the O2 Academy in Birmingham, and support slots to the likes of
Mini Mansions, which features ex-members of Queens Of The Stone Age. The live shows display the band at their finest: energetic, unpredictable, charismatic, and punctuated with improvised jams.

Guitarist Harry said, “We are at our best when we have the freedom to improvise. Usually it begins with a singular rhythmic pulse, and from there we add layers of guitar and melody. Music doesn’t have to be complicated to be good, it just needs to get people moving.”

The band have also received radio coverage on numerous unsigned and Internet shows.

Funk Pumpkins have one self-released EP available, featuring originals ‘Walkin’ Away’ and ‘Dreaming’.
