****************************************************************
Victor Orlando & Fun-Ja-La is "'N Da House!"

That is the title of the new CD from the group - a mix of ol' skool Funk, Jazz, and Latin - you're sure to find something on the CD to suit your taste. Victor Orlando has contributed on albums and performed with an A list of entertainers, as far back as the early days of Robert (Goodie) Whitfield, Billy Preston, Cherelle, Greg Walker, Alex Ligertwood, (vocalist from the group SANTANA), Grammy Award Winners - Yarbrough and Peoples, Pop Idol - Shanice, Motown's hit group - OZONE, Teena Marie, Gary Bartz, Billy Mitchell, Calypso Rose (from Jamaica) and the Mighty Sparrow (from Belize), ....all the way to the Greatest Band that ever hit the planet - " THE G A P BAND" and the Greatest Singer on Earth, "MS. CHAKA KHAN".

Now taking his new group, "Fun-Ja-La" to the next level, he's hoping to give all of his funk, jazz, and latin fans a taste of the "Fun-Ja-La" magic. The first single, "ARGENTIA" is a latin favorite with the soulful vocals of Mr. Alex Ligertwood. "I Got Some Funk Stuck in My Throat (and it can't come out)", is a tribute to the funky sounds that all the ol' skool singers used to have. This song features Victor Orlando on percussion and Robert Wilson from the G A P Band on bass. It's a fun, funk anthem that's sure to keep you movin'. “ I Got It Bad”, features Patryce "Choc'let” Banks from Graham Central Station on vocals, and Charles Glen from the Little Richard Band, on bass. Other appreciated guest artist on the CD, are Bobby Watson - Bass, (Rufus), Larry Houston - Keys, (Slave), and from the Internationally Acclaimed Group, MANDRILL - Mr.Lou Wilson - on Percussion. There's a hot group in town, and they go by the name of
"Fun-Ja-La"
.... soon to be in "your house!".
