Funk, Rhythm & Blues and Rock
Tsunami Funk is known to bring a party with them wherever they perform their high-energy funk-based shows! Consisting of Luke Flansburg on lead vocals and guitar, Eddie Tsuru on bass, Nathan Anderson on guitar, David Charles on keyboard, and Isaiah Morales on Drums, Tsunami Funk features some of Montana’s best professional musicians. Playing tunes from artists like Stevie Wonder, Bruno Mars, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Earth Wind & Fire, and many more, Tsunami Funk plays music that usually makes everyone want to get up and dance and have been dazzling audiences in Southwest Montana for close to twenty years.
This show marks Tsunami Funk’s first stop at the Shane Center and we know they’ll bring the kind of uptempo dancing music we’re hearing our patrons love. Get here early for this one and grab a spot close to the dance floor!

He has performed in all 50 of the United States and around the world.
This big, horn based band had the entire pavilion on their feet last summer and brought along salsa instructors who taught the folks on the dance floor some fabulous new moves. It is nearly impossible not to move when the band takes the stage.
