Thursday Feb 16th – Thursday Feb 23rd, 2023
BRAZIL is the largest Latin country in the Americas with cultural influences of this country are a blend of Native American, African, European and Portuguese customs. As an added fact, it claims the most recognized and uninhibited of all Carnival celebrations on the globe.
For the people of Brazil, Carnival is an enormous festival of pride, culture and party energy before Lent each year. While Salvador da Bahia claims the largest celebration, Rio de Janeiro’s, massive Street Parties (called Blocos), lavish Masquerade Balls and prestigious Samba school competition make it the epic televised event watched around the world! The signature parade competition in Rio’s Sambadrome Stadium go on through the entire week, where the top samba troops contend fiercely for the coveted championship crown. Showcased are large, hand-crafted, visually impressive parade floats from each Samba school, led by a beautiful “Samba Queen”. The Samba Queen is accompanied by thousands (yes, thousands) of male & female singers, drummers and dancers in dazzling costumes performing choreographed routines to the Samba beat. It is such an overwhelming, exuberant display of artistry & showmanship – that if you look closely, you’ll may even spot several Samba dancers with absolutely no costume at all! (WHOA)
We can say this event never disappoints! After a covid cancellation & delay the past two years, we set our sites for the proper return next February. Join the Funky People for the the biggest party on the planet at Carnavale 2023!

Event Details
Thursday Aug 3rd – Sunday Aug 13th, 2023
SPAIN is the largest country in Southern Europe. The mainland of Spain is bordered to the north by France, to the West by Portugal, to the East by the Mediterranean Sea and is the only country in Europe to have a physical border with the African continent (Morocco). Madrid is the capitol and largest populated city, with other major urban areas that include Valencia, Seville, Malaga, Billbao, and Barcelona. Spain’s official language is Spanish and the dominant religion is Roman Catholic. The country has a rich multi-ethnic history of empires and recorded cultures settling on the Iberian Peninsula territories as far back 35,000 years ago. 
Today, Spain is a highly developed nation with the fourteenth biggest global economy. In 2017, it was ranked as the second most visited country in the world with over 82 million foreign visitors. The summer months are especially popular and a great time to be there!
Barcelona is the cosmopolitan center of Spain’s Catalonia region, where the scenic neighborhoods and lively culture bring diverse tourists from all over to this part of Europe. There’s cuisine and wine to sample in addition to art galleries and famous locations like the Sagrada Familia, Valencia Central Mercado, the Black Madonna at the Montserrat Monastery, the Dali-Theatre Museum and the medieval city of Girona (where the Game of Thrones TV show is filmed).
The island of Ibiza is a hot spot & has become a legendary resort getaway that needs little introduction. You can tan on the amazing white sand beaches by day and party with celebrities & jetstters at the hottest venues by night. Other optional stops in 2023 include Lisbon & Croatia. It’ll be another Summer experience you don’t want to miss with the Funky People!

Event Details
TWO SHOWS – ONE NIGHT in Philadelphia this February with Sheila E. & band!
SHEILA E. ~ “Queen of Percussion”
One of life’s constants for Sheila E. comes down to a simple phrase: follow the beat. And her impeccable inner rhythm is the pulse behind a trailblazing career that still knows no bounds.
Family, faith and music were guiding forces for Sheila E. growing up in the Bay Area. In addition to percussionist dad Pete, the Oakland,CA native counts former Santana member/Azteca founder Coke Escovedo and The Dragons front man Mario Escovedo as uncles. Fellow Latin star Tito Puente was her godfather. In addition to being weaned on Latin jazz and Motown, Sheila E. was exposed to a diverse array of Bay Area acts. Those influences ranged from the rock of Jefferson Airplane and the Grateful Dead to the R&B/pop of the Pointer Sisters and the funk of Sly & the Family Stone. “I used to sit on the corner outside of the local community center with Twinkies and 7-Up listening to Sly and Larry Graham rehearse,” remembers Sheila E. “The sounds of the Bay Area molded me.”
So it’s no surprise that after such a music-immersive childhood, the gifted, world-class drummer and percussionist began amassing an impressive string of credits playing not only with her dad but also with pioneering talents like George Duke, Herbie Hancock, Marvin Gaye, Diana Ross, Lionel Richie, Prince, Ringo Starr, Gloria Estefan, Beyonce and Jennifer Lopez. Grammy Award-nominated singer/songwriter behind the seminal hits “The Glamorous Life” and “A Love Bizarre.” A fearless multi-instrumentalist, equally proficient on guitar and bass, actress, mentor and philanthropist.
Two Shows on Wednesday February 8, 2023 at 6pm & 9:30pm, City Winery, 990 Filbert St, Philadelphia, PA 19107
