Emphasis Records Releases Stevie Hawkins New Album, “What The Funk?”

Emphasis Records Announces The Release of

Stevie Hawkins “What the Funk?” Album



Emphasis Records announces the release of
Stevie Hawkins “What the Funk?” album. The album containing 19 tracks
spans the world of Funk and Soul music from the late 1960’s to the
present.

Atlanta,
Georgia,
United States of America
(Free-Press-Release.com) April 5, 2011 —

The album, aptly titled “What The Funk?” explores the evolution of funk
throughout the years. The album’s style is a mix of several genres,
such as Soul, Blues, Jazz, Latin and the many other influences that make
Funk music what it is.

Stevie says “I was more concerned with
instrumentation on this album than my previous two releases. Funk has
influenced my entire musical career yet the musical genius’ behind the
genre have not seen the spotlight in just as many eras. I believe the
audience is there, we just have to bring it to them in a way that the
current music industry does not. There are just 12 notes in all of
music, and what Funk does is take all of those influences and those 12
notes and fuses them into something magical and that just gets you
grooving”. To continue, please click “MORE”!
