Bubonik Funk is an original Soul/Rock band from Charlotte, North Carolina that specializes in energetic funky performance and groove musicality. Taking inspiration from groups as varied as Funkadelic, D'angelo, Radiohead, Led Zeppelin and the Talking Heads, this group has pushed their blend of funk music for nearly seven years with an unchanged lineup of Stefan Kallander (Guitar, vocals), Dylan Ellett (Vocals, keys), Nick Mcowen (Bass, synth) and Daniel Allison (Drums, vocals).

Bubonik Funk has toured the East coast, playing with such dynamic acts as Soulive, Zach Deputy, Cyril Neville, Jonny Lang and Yo Mamma's Big Fat Booty Band. They have recorded and self-produced three albums; their latest entitled "Zabooki".

As of 2012, the band's range extends from Atlanta, Georgia to Boston, Massachusetts. They have played venues such as the legendary Bitter End in Greenwich Village, the Drumstrong Festival and the Fillmore Charlotte. The band recently reunited full time for the first time in four years, and continues to build quickly across the East coast, gathering accolades from college publications, bloggers and newspapers alike.
