Dynamic 10 piece funk band Mondo Freaks have recently released their EP Bells Are Ringing which showcases their distinct take on the infectious rhythms of late '70s and early '80s funk. Over the past decade, the Naarm/Melbourne based band have built a devoted following with their unique blend of funk classics and deep cuts, bridging the gap between the originals and their influence on modern hip hop, RnB, and pop music.
Mondo Freaks stand out from the crowd with their rich live instrumentation, strong vocal performances, and exceptional songwriting, elevating their music beyond just instrumental grooves. Whether in the studio or performing live, they are a powerful ensemble that brings their sound to life in a way that's more than just a nostalgic tribute. Mondo Freaks infuse a timeless style with new energy, making it feel fresh and more relevant than ever.
To continue the celebrations of the group's latest offering, Mondo Freaks joined DJ Manchild on The Breakdown on for an intimate Studio 5 Live session. Listen back here for a special set and interview.
