Venue: Jesus Green
Category: Gigs & Live Music
One Liner: Goatfunk Goes Live
Price Info: £9.50
Time Info: Doors 7pm, Music 8pm
After funking the crowds righteously at The Big Day Out it seems Cambridge just can't get enough of that sweet soulful and downright dirty funky stuff that Capricorn are dishing out. Guest singers Jen and Cath fronted Capricorn with mucho feminine sass at the BDO, and Cath (Coombs - Horace X/Awesome Soul etc) returns to augment the regular Capricorn lineup again, 'cause she's ace!
After serving tours of duty at Glastonbury (the Avalon stage... shameless unreconstructed hippie that he is!), and the venerable cambridge Folk Festival (erm, shameless hippie etc!), we welcome 'The Rev' Mike Clifford back to the goatfunk family. He's gonna be preachin' from the pulpit of soul, and there shall be funk and brimstone aplenty.
If you like James Brown, Al Green, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Earth Wind & Fire, Kool & The Gang, Bill Withers, Willie Bobo, The Isleys, Herbie Hancock, Grant Green, Aretha (& Erma!) Franklin, Miles, The Meters, Sly, Lonnie Smith, Curtis Mayfield, WAR, Funkadelic, The Crusaders, Roberta Flack, and many more legends & lesser known lights of righteous funky soul, you gonna dig Capricorn's phat funky gutbucket grooves!

Doors and bar open from 7pm.
