Jerusafunk (JFUNK) is a six-member psychedelic world funk ensemble from Arizona known for their adventurous sound and unforgettable live energy. Described as “highly danceable yet unconventional,” JFUNK fuses traditional funk, jazz, klezmer, disco, and Latin rhythms with avant-garde sensibilities and a fearless spirit of exploration. Their sound is both global and deeply rooted in groove, weaving intricate clarinet lines, driving bass riffs, and experimental polyrhythms into a joyous, genre-melting experience.
​
Since their founding in 2012, JFUNK has performed across the U.S. and Mexico, earning accolades like Top 10 Artists to See Live in Arizona (Phoenix New Times) and recognition as a Tempe City Arts Qualified Artist (2023–2025). Their discography includes the acclaimed JFUNK (2021), The Hierophant (2017), and Sweat & Glitter (2015), with media praise from Spin Magazine, Mr. Bongo, and AZ Central.
​
They’ve shared stages with musical luminaries including George Clinton & Parliament Funkadelic, Deerhoof, Ozomatli, MarchFourth Marching Band, and Har Mar Superstar, and have been featured at M3F, PhxArt Amplified, iAM Music Festival, and Back to the Beach Fest.
With bold arrangements, global inspirations, and unrelenting passion, JFUNK invites listeners to a transformative dance-floor experience—one that celebrates both musical diversity and community.
