About Dumpstaphunk Dumpstaphunk stands out amongst New Orleans' best, cementing themselves as one of the funkiest bands to ever arise from the Crescent City.

Their performances combine ingenious musicianship through complex funk, rock and jazz arrangements accompanied by soulful melodies and Big Easy traditions.
