Music description:  Sister Funk’s earlier sound range from classic R&B in tracks like “Holding Out” and “Here and Now” to LBGTQ anthem “Crucify” to dance-pop hits like “On The Dance Floor” and “Truth Will Set You Free”. The latest CD release Therapy Sessions are more contemporary pop / rock with social lyrical themes around mental health, infidelity, love, and empowerment. “OH I” is a crowd-pleaser in that you can’t help but sing along while “Nothing Compares” an 80’s rock ballad meets broadway theater draws you in emotionally. Their music offers something for every music lover.
