Somedays, You Just Need Funk

Sunday, Funday and this one is a good one for some funk. I was kind of on a Bruno Mars kick today so naturally that leads to my beloved Silk Sonic. That's the duo of Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak.

I started watching some performance clips and just kept smiling. The crowd screaming is wild and everyone is dancing and having fun. Not a care in the world! The touring guitarist in the first clip is Mateus Asato from Brazil. He got "known" for playing tiny clips on Instagram. (Mars and Paak play most of the guitars on their Silk Sonic debut).


My very favorite Silk Sonic live performance that I've seen is when they did the Billboard Music Awards in 2022 for their version of "Love's Train." Seriously listen to the crowd going bonkers. Freaking epic:



Some other performances that bring me pure joy are below:


"Fly As Me" - from the BET Soul Train awards (2021)



"777" from the Grammy Awards (2022)



"Leave The Door Open" from the Grammy Awards (2021) - and the first time Silk Sonic ever performed live as a group! This song won four Grammy awards.
