Combining the raw power of live horns with cutting-edge electronic production, Thunderfunk Machine is a high-energy musical experience that pushes the boundaries of what is possible on stage. Audiences will be transported on a sonic journey through a fusion of their favorite funk, hip hop, pop, and classical music, all reimagined alongside modern electronic grooves.
​
Since forming in 2017, Thunderfunk Machine has been making waves with all over the country - from performing on the racetrack at the Indy 500 to alongside the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra.
With most of the members now serving as professors, they've also been sharing their knowledge and passion for music at colleges across the country. Thunderfunk Machine has enjoyed teaching residencies at California State University, San Francisco State University, University of South Carolina, Carnegie Mellon University, and Strings Music Festival.
​
Outside of the clubs and the classrooms, Thunderfunk Machine has delivered musical projects to some of the biggest companies in the world. Highlights include writing original music for ESPN, and playing private events for Google, Duolingo, Grocery Shop, and more.
The mission is to make you move.
