The UK’s Premier Live Disco Experience!
Established in 1995, Uncle Funk’s Disco Inferno have become the UK’s definitive live disco band—an irresistible explosion of funk, glitter, and feel-good energy. Renowned for their electrifying performances, the band is a regular fixture on the country’s biggest stages, including Glastonbury Festival, Standon Calling, Camper Calling the Soultasia festivals and The Cambridge Club Festival, alongside countless other major events.
Much more than a tribute act, Uncle Funk‘s Disco Inferno deliver a fully immersive visual and musical extravaganza. Their high-octane show blends the timeless magic of classic disco with the adrenaline of modern dance anthems, creating a setlist designed to keep audiences dancing from the opening bar. Expect pitch-perfect renditions of iconic hits from Earth, Wind & Fire, Bee Gees, Chic, KC & The Sunshine Band, The Jacksons, Sister Sledge, Kool & The Gang, and many more soul and disco legends.
The group’s signature sound is powered by a sensational nine-piece lineup: charismatic frontman Uncle Funk, powerhouse vocalists Laura Mugridge & Gemma Samuels, virtuoso guitarist Bobby Harrison (Cliff Richard / Australian Pink Floyd Show), bassist Mike Brooks (Bonnie Tyler), keyboardist James Beckwith (James Beckwith Trio), drummer Ajit Gill (Vertaal), and an exceptional West End horn section featuring Rosie Duckworth and Fiona Asbury.
With decades of experience, unmatched musicianship, and a reputation for filling dance floors wherever they go, Uncle Funk’s Disco Inferno guarantee an unforgettable night of pure, glitter-soaked joy. Whether headlining a festival or igniting a private event, they bring the party—and keep it burning all night long!
