Formed in amidst the granite cityscape of Aberdeen, Scotland, The Funky Red Pandas have quickly earned a reputation as a high‑energy, award‑winning funk collective.
Blending tight grooves, brassy horn lines, and witty, original songwriting, they describe themselves as “Aberdeen’s Funkiest Rockiest Funk Rock Band”
Their 2023 EP Big Willie Funk features standout tracks such as “Karl‑Heinz Rummenigge,” “Awkward Disco,” and “Night People,” which showcase their playful lyricism and dance-floor-ready funk rhythms.
Their live presence is equally compelling, they claimed victory in the Eruption Battle of the Bands grand final in 2023, beating out nearly 100 contenders, and have delivered electrifying performances at Aberdeen venues like Krakatoa. Add them to your radar if you’re craving vibrant funk with a distinctly Scottish twist!
