Joy and Madness

A nine piece soul and funk explosion out of Sacramento that could be described as Jamiroqui meets J. Geils, Joy and Madness has been rocking stages all over California since inception, sharing the stage with the likes of Tower of Power, Collective Soul, The Monophonics, Trombone Shorty and more. They have added long-time Sacramento funkateer, Miss Nyxi on bass, and the prolific funk guitarist, Bobby G. The addition of world percussionist Ryan Sacco cemented the layer of groove that truly takes off in their live shows. Live performances show the band bringing its namesake to every set, leaving crowds sweaty and inspired with a raucous mix of raw stonesy energy, pulsing groove and juicy horn lines coloring tightly crafted songs that bring a modern classic pop sensibility to a new age of joyous funk and soul. Front man and vocalist Hans Eberbach brings so much freewheeling energy to the stage, he has literally broken right through the floorboards and his raw, open connection with the audience means every show is breaking down barriers and pulling everyone together into the excitement of the experience.
