Get ready to groove to this one, Major Funk is probably the funkiest band to come out of the Yukon. Paris Pick introduced us to this funky group in her episode, so, of course, we had to call up her 'horny' friend Adrian to give us the low down on this band. Adrian who plays horns in both Major Funk and Paris Pick, tells us about all the collaboration that happens both in the band and in the music community in the Yukon. Of course, we spin a ton of majorly funky songs from them and a bunch of other cool Yukon artists. Spin their music whenever you want through the BGN Spotify Playlist.
