"The vivacity of Jimi's performance is powered by unadulterated musicianship" (Loaf)
​
'Jimi Get Your Funk On' are an Edinburgh based 9-piece funk behemoth led by guitarist and ski enthusiast, Honza Kourimsky. Featuring a handful of talented musicians from different corners of Europe, the band is a collective of exciting stories and cultural backgrounds reflected in their music and performance.
From hikers and bikers to actors and gamers, theatre goers to party throwers, the group’s whacky and dynamic characters always come together to deliver an energizing and hypnotic live show.
Taking its name from the legendary 'Jimi Hendrix Experience', this musical bevy combine funk with a touch of psychedelia, blues rock and jazz to create their very own type of funky mayhem.
