About the Band

“Face The Funk” is an all-star 10-piece retro-style funk band with a full horn section, that captures the spirit of groups such as James Brown, Tower of Power, and Sly & The Family Stone. The brain child of award winning composer, Frank Klepacki, (also the touring drummer for The Family Stone), his love of old school funk music is reflected and based on the edgier founding influential bands of the genre.

“After watching the Woodstock film performance of Sly & The Family Stone as a kid, I said to myself, ‘that’s what I want to accomplish someday,’” says Klepacki. “Since then, I was then fortunate to have the opportunity to tour with The Family Stone as their drummer for several years.”

Face The Funk’s latest 2025 album “Change It Up,” continues to draw from old-school funk influences, while presenting new cleverly written material. “I’ve been inspired by so many great funk artists and musician friends who share in the love of this music, and because there are so few new artists doing this, I hope to re-introduce this music to the modern generation.”
