Described by the LA Times as “a quintet of electro-charged youngsters from East L.A.. At moments recalling the dance-punk revivalism of early Moving Units and The Rapture and at others bouncing along to a skittish cowbell like LCD Soundsystem.” The band’s universal appeal to dance, funk, disco and punk fans alike has contributed to their rising popularity.

Funeral Party just completed their first full US tour as direct support for Yelle and are currently putting the finishing touches on their debut album at The Mars Volta’s studio in Los Angeles which will be released April 21st. The band is going to be all over SXSW this year so get them on your radar! “Car Wars” is the focus track.
