VULFPECK /// Funky Duck

[@DankPods]

"He owns a truck, but he drives a Saab" - the line that keeps me coming back

[@yagizhan0]

No way you listen to vulf too mate, love your vids btw

[@depressedfrogpenis]

Extra dirty pods

[@NightmareNate]

wtf all the good channels listen to vulf

[@trinitus.]

Geir geir GEIR!!!

I swear Antwaun is some kind of funky robot from the future because no human is capable of doing that

[@leonardo.01]

looool

[@giuliagrigoli5886]

Ahahah no he's just awesome!

[@Elgar337]

He's great, but take a chill pill

[@kuso6]

They should honestly just consider adding Antwaun to the band, he goes so perfectly with their funky style

[@MrGrimlocke]

word

[@BobbyBasketball19999]

Vulfpeck desperately needs a frontman, too, and Antwaun seems like he'd do great as one just because of how charismatic he comes across as just through his singung and motions.

[@TheNinetySecond]

VULFPECK already has a frontman, and his name is JACK STRATTON.

[@nicovilches8225]

true bro

[@ninjaassassin27]

I think that keeping Antwaun as just a collab artist is their best decision yet. Vulf has and always will first and foremost be about the sick groove, and not so much about grandstanding with a selected singer. This way, they have more freedom to keep making incredible stuff like Dean Town or Christmas in L.A., and it makes their few tracks with him special and crazy and valuable. In short, they will probably never have just a single dedicated singer, nor should they, because they're all about the music, and the music can be whatever they want this way. Having your funk and eating it too.

'he gave the first ted talk'

[@1standlast]

I was literally listening to this one day on my Auto-Play on KZbin. I was like "oh cool! Some old school funk (like the funk box, or something by George Clinton). And then I heard "he did the first Ted talk." I was like... Wait what? This is NEW!?!?! I am just do proud/intrigued with this band!

[@Jonas-jr7oq]

Dan Klos it’s actually Jack’s mom’s basement, thank you very much

[@MisterBigBlunts]

Antwaun seriously needs to just join the band. They complement each other so well.

[@slinkyphil]

where can i watch the funky duck ted talk?

[@letMeSayThatInIrish]

+filipelouro Looks like that was Al Gore in 2006 www.ted.com/playlists/168/the_first_6_ted_talks_ever

[@bshortall1881]

Your watching it

[@especiallyleavish]

I guess Al Gore is the funky duck?

[@WesYarber]

thank you

[@Swagtildawn]

God damn man. I just can't understand how or why these guys are this good...

[@wizardmix]

+Susie O'Drangus More than likely they worked their asses off.

[@zacharytaverner5874]

+Evan J Jack said in an AMA that they only practice a few times a year, my guess it that they're just insanely talented

[@wizardmix]

Zachary Taverner 1). I don't know any outstanding musician who didn't rehearse insanely to get there. They might only practice together a few times a year but I'm sure they all train individually and bring that when they do get together. 2). If they gig a lot together but don't practice much, live shows get you just as tight. 3). That bass player rehearses, no doubt in my mind. Any player who can do flawless Jamerson lines and hold it down as tight as Pino Palladino live is rehearsing. A LOT. -- EDIT He kind of also has a Rocco Prestia feel to his playing.

[@foobargorch]

+Susie O'Drangus 1. listen to a ton of good music, like real, active listening 2. play a lot. even if they don't "practice", like Zachary said, they obviously have done the work

[@SirPsycho68]

+Evan J Joe Dart is the man. Check out Sky Mall, Beastly or Walk to remember for small glimpse of his expertise. And no one can tell me either that those dudes do not practice. No offense to the Vulfpeck but no one get's born this tight.

[@foobargorch]

Yay more Antwaun! And finally I have enough funky animal songs to merit a playlist

[@foobargorch]

btw funk connoisseurs, anybody know if Dr John's unnecessary dance routine he sometimes does at gigs is based on Rufus Thomas catchphrase? I've been wondering about that for a while now...

[@siampho5197]

funky monk by red hot chilli peppers is also notable lol

[@jesseriley6669]

+foobargorch Yertle the Turtle should be among your funky animal tunes

[@bangfish3603]

dont forget mr penguin, classic funk song

[@Raaschid]

I guess you already have Weather Report's "The Chicken"

[@bwifpunish]

Honestly my favourite thing about Antwuan is the faces he makes. So much character. And I have to laugh whenever he just drops the funk voice like when he says 'frank sinatra' in 1612.

[@gordonohallmhurain]

So fuckiNG DIRTY YO VULFPECK PLEASE RELEASE MORE THAN ONCE A YEAR I NEED MY FIX

[@Daisyflower1992]

👍

[@adamantportraits9514]

I love how your sentence elevates on the second word :0

[@Garblegox]

Saw Antwuan in the thumbnail. Jumped in my chair so hard I nearly tipped over and DIED. Would have been worth it anyway. Great song.

[@iluoreasekomhe3953]

Lol

[@ryansmodernlife.]

This last school year, my high school band director put on a March Madness (which later became April Anarchy, then May Mayhem, then June Jocoseness) bracket for what we thought was the best song. Everyone from Concert Band, Wind Ensemble, Jazz Band and Percussion Ensemble submitted their favorite song, then we all would vote for the best song between two songs at a time. My friend Kiera submitted this song and it won by a landslide, and rightfully so. Thank you Kiera for showing us all this masterpiece. She really is a Funky Duck.

Hi, I'd like to issue a DMCA takedown notice for this song on behalf of the Burn Unit Victims Association of Greater Cleveland, Ohio (BUVAGCO) because Antwaun Stanley is on FIRE and we've trademarked things of that nature. Our lawyers will be in contact shortly. HAGS, BUVAGCO.

Frank Zappa would have absolutely loved this band. These guys are outrageously good and original. I love how they just write funny lyrics and don’t take themselves too seriously. And of course, they’re all motherfuckers on their instruments and as musicians in general.
