TEMPLE FUNK COLLECTIVE
Temple Funk Collective brought the house down at Bestival. A New Orleans style 8 piece brass band riot, taking their lead from the Louisiana legends and adding gypsy, jungle and hip hop.

Hailing from Temple Cowley, Oxford, Temple Funk hit the scene in late 2012 and haven’t looked back since.

With a rapidly growing fan base they are becoming one of the UKs top New Orleans Brass Bands

Now mixing upbeat originals into a set of some classic covers, with
both clever and cheeky arrangements

Temple Funk are a band you can watch over and over again and still spot something new. Temple Funk also supply the horn power and drums behind the Dutty Moonshine Big Band, a collaboration with other artists to create one of the UKs best live acts on the swing scene.

DUTTY MOONSHINE (DJ SET)
Dutty Moonshine is the creation of Michael Rack – a long-established DJ and musician with a penchant for the seedy world of vaudeville and even seedier basslines.

SKYLARKIN SOUNDSYSTEM & FRIENDS
Count Skylarkin stumbled into DJing in the late 90’s after his mixtapes proved a hit with customers at a South London cafe. The lauded DJ, promoter, garden shed enthusiast and all-round dapper dan behind Skylarkin’ Soundsystem, an hour in the company of the Count guarantees jumpin’ jivin’ rockin’ swingin’ reggae, ska, soul, dancehall and rhythm & blues, aching feet and grins all round.

The Count has shared stages, decks and rum with such black music luminaries as The Wailers (UK Tour DJ), The Specials, The Skatalites, Prince Buster, Alton Ellis, Max Romeo, Mad Professor, Don Letts, Jerry Dammers, Trojan Soundsystem, Benga, DJ Yoda, Alex Paterson (The Orb), Massive Attack’s Daddy G and Horace Andy.

As co-founder of The Disco Shed he has made headlining appearances at numerous summer festivals, including The Big Chill, Latitude, Reading, Truck and The Mayor's Thames Festival. Shedless, The Count has also rocked Glastonbury, Shambala, The Secret Garden Party, Notting Hill Carnival and countless others. An authority on reggae music particularly, he has written for several music publications, including NME.

In 2009 The Count (aided by Harvey K-Tel) moved into music production, and their debut release "Dub Of A Preacher" is out soon on Music For The People 12".
