Radio Ron

New Zealand
R&B • Funk
March 06, 2006
In the spring of 2005, four funk brothers united over a single dream: to take funk to the masses. Armed with guitar, drums, bass, keyboard and pseudonyms, Radio Ron were complete. Their uniqueness lies in their experimentation with different music styles (funk, classic rock, metal and blues) to create a new experience the likes of which the world has never seen before A little something called Razor-Funk.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Radio Ron is in its essence a live band. In our recordings we aim to capture our live sound with a minimum of overdubs or extras.
Your musical influences
Radio Ron sounds like the aftermath of a nuclear experiment where Supergroove was crossed with the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and everyone involved was given superpowers for the good of mankind, and the good of mankinds' ears. Or, more simply, a funk smoothie.
What equipment do you use?
On drums, Colonel Whitefunk uses a Pearl Masters kit (or whatever rhythmic device that comes to hand). Grand-Admiral Groovedaddy plays a Fender Telecaster through a Vox AD100VT combo amp. Captain Funk-Bomb, on the bass guitar, lays down his grooves through means of a Musicman Stingray running through a Warwick ProFet IV head and a Behringer quad. Lastly, Dr. Sugar plays a Yamaha PSR-730 keyboard through a Roland 120H Head and Marshall quad
