About rob funk

Rob Funk loves all music. Celtic Rock Metal African Blues Caribbean Children's Classical Country Folk and Traditional Industrial Jazz Latin March Middle Eastern Military Musicals New Age Novelty R&B and Soul Rap and Hip-Hop Reggae Devotional Rock and Pop Theme Music World Fusion

I was born and raised in Nova Scotia where I spent much of my first decade as a pianist. Upon entering junior high school, percussion and drums took over as my new ambition. This combined with my classical background excelled me to a university level in a matter of a school year where I further refined my skills in the Nova Scotia orchestra for youth After 4 years of percussion study, I picked up the guitar. Now at 36 years old I’ve been playing and performing ever since and continue to absorb every aspect of music that is presented to me.

I just moved to Nelson from Whistler where I was a full-time musician for the last 7 years. I am currently rebuilding a house my wife and I bought a couple of years ago and continue to perform music locally and surrounding areas mostly as a solo performer at pubs, lounges, public markets, hotel corporate gatherings, weddings, coffee houses and I also front my own band. I can also be found backing up several other musicians in town.
