    Joe Funk of The Kitchen Dwellers

    Joe Funk of The Kitchen Dwellers

    Amongst the jam bands that seem like they are always on the road are The Kitchen Dwellers. The Montana based quartet are part bluegrass or even jamgrass and part psychedelia. Their unique sound and that constant touring ethos has created quite a story to unpack. The Kitchen Dwellers released their fourth studio album “Seven Devils” a few weeks back, which gave a reason to catch up with Joe Funk, the band’s upright bass player. 

     

    First song: Seven Devils (Limbo)

    Second song: Pendulum (V)

Best live music podcast out there!

I look forward to The Live Five podcast every week for the best collection of live music!

Adam Weinberg ,

Great interviewer

Love the podcast. Got first introduced to Ira and his podcast through Reed Mathis a while back (which remains one of my favorite musician interviews ever) and have been enjoying it every since. The Sound Podcast is great asset to our scene!

Dave Ruch ,

Great interviewer

Ira is very well researched as an interviewer and asks great questions that get his guests thinking and talking in new ways about what they do. Highly recommended!
