Crowbar’ is a collaboration between Redtenbacher’s Funkestra, Horn House and the Masterlink Sessions. This is the penultimate digital single before the album FUNKOPIA lands on Oct 3.

A muscular New Orleans–inspired groove with burning solos and tasty funk riffs. Pure energy and groove with Carter Arrington’s raucous guitar solo, Ross Stanley’s Hammond fire, and plenty of Horn House oompf.

Originally titled ‘Jive Detector’ (a phrase from Dr John’s biography Under a Hoodoo Moon), the tune briefly travelled via ‘Major Arcana’ before James Welch at Masterlink Productions nicknamed it ‘Crowbar’ – and the name stuck.

Just Like Me

'The Lamb of Funk' was born out of an inspired jam at Masterlink Productions after a long day of sessions. It’s a groove-heavy, muscular opener for FUNKOPIA, featuring Horn House (Nichol Thomson, Tom Walsh, Blaeme Grevins), guitarists Carter Arrington and Simon Peter King, and Jim Watson on a fiery organ solo. For me, it captures exactly why I love making music—brilliant players coming together to create something more than the sum of its parts.

PETTY CASH

BLUE

I don't wanna close my eyes
losing our sense of time
twisted all up inside
making me wanna die

maybe I'll stay the night
hoping she'll hold me tight
whisper that it's quite alright

with you
with you
with you
with you

I don't wanna be another answer
round and round, until we're going faster
claps my palms and pray it's getting better
with time
with time

(Lie, lying right by your side)
(Down till we meet the sky)
(Keeping on every night)
(Night)
(Night)

I don't want to be
another memory
I don't want to be
another memory

with you
with you

I don't wanna close my eyes
losing our sense of time
twisted all up inside
making me wanna die

maybe I'll stay the night
hoping she'll hold me tight
whisper that it's quite alright

with you
with you
with you
with you

I don't wanna be another answer
round and round, until we're going faster
claps my palms and pray it's getting better
with time
with time

(Lie, lying right by your side)
(Down till we meet the sky)
(Keeping on every night)
