From over 250 shows Five Alarm Funk has performed highlights include: Vancouver Jazz Festival, Toronto Jazz Festival, Ottawa Blues Fest, Shambhala, Sunfest in London, Ontario, Ness Creek Festival in Saskatchewan, Summer Meltdown in Darrington, Washington and numerous sold-out shows at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver.

Recently the band had a number of performances for the Vancouver/Whistler 2010 Olympic games. Minutes after Canada was awarded the gold medal in hockey Five Alarm Funk took the stage at the Molson Canadian Hockey House and performed to a delerious crowd.

Summer 2010 has Five Alarm Funk releasing a new album. They will be heading to the Evolve festival in Antigonish, Nova Scotia as well as performing at Seattle NW Folklife, Vancouver Jazz Fest at David Lam Park, Victoria Jazz Festival, Salmon Arm Roots and Blues Fest and many club shows throughout Canada.

Voodoo Hairdoo, the band’s second studio album, captures the boundless energy of Five Alarm Funk’s live show. It is a journey from fast funk and dance-crazed Latin to epic reggae and thunderous Afro-beat.
