Oomphf Funk Band

Oomphf is a powerful, high energy funk/pop band fronted by highly sought-after Sammy Sarfas . The funk band is made up of some of the most talented musicians in Brighton and the South East. Between them they have played and recorded with an impressive list of artists (Jools Holland, Amy Winehouse, Roy Ayers, Alexander O'Neal, Alice Russell, De La Soul, Nitin Sawney, Viola Wills, Turin Brakes, The Mummers and Quantic Soul Orchestra to mention a few!)

This group of young, experienced musicians are regularly booked to play at weddings, parties, functions and clubs all over Brighton, the UK and Europe. The band mesmerise crowds with their high energy and showmanship. Outstanding vocals are performed by lead vocalist Sammy Sarfas backed up by a superb horn section with some blistering solos from Rob Heasman on Trumpet and Ben Sarfas on Saxophone. A band is only as good as its drummer and Tristan Banks, who was short listed for the Michael Jackson Tour, is one of the most exceptional and funkiest drummers in the UK. Combine Tristan with brilliant guitar, bass and keyboard players and you have one of the best funk band backlines in Britain.
