这种源自黑人灵魂里的音乐，自从出生，历经多色血脉的浸染，最终形成了它五光十色的独到魅力！FUNK（不是FUCK！）音乐的现场，就是要汗流浃背，就是要肆意摇摆，就是要整夜沸腾！

还记得那些年，各大音乐节现场那支能够轻易带领全场观众自由起舞的THE VERSE吗？还记得那支由数名乐手，伴唱，舞者组成的国内独树一帜的BIG BAND吗？THE VERSE的领军人物，著名的FUNK音乐家，现厦门唯一的现场音乐酒吧--REAL LIVE的掌门人黄勃，五年后重出江湖，汇集来自北京，上海，毛里求斯等多位顶尖的JAZZ，FUNK音乐家，重组THE VERSE！五年之后，中国式的FUNK音乐终于重新回到了北京的夜晚！

Funk! The soul of funk music comes from the absolute “release” the tunes are able to conjure up! Open, unrestrained, uninhibited! An unfettered lust for life and passion to dance!Funk has its roots in the soul music created by African Americans, and after different influences and incarnations, the unique style of music known as funk finally formed and took on a life of its own! The funk (not fuck!) scene and gigs feature sweating bodies side-by-side dancing and throbbing all night long!As funk slowly found its way to Asia, the reserved and introverted bones of people could not resist the natural heat of funk music! After being away from the music scene for the past five years, on April 18, 2015, China’s first big funk band The Verse makes its long awaited return! The only true hole in Mainland China’s music scene – funk – has now been filled once again by The Verse!Do you still remember the music festivals of years gone past when The Verse would lead thousands of people to spontaneously support the freedom of dancing? Can you recall the musicians, signers, and dancers that composed China’s first unique big band? The Verse is led by captivating front man, famous funk musician, and the owner and manager of Xiamen’s only true live house (Real Live) – Huang Bo. Over the past five years Huang Bo has assembled an eclectic group of renowned funk musicians from Beijing, Shanghai, Mauritius, and beyond in reforming The Verse. It’s taken five years, but funk music is ready to make its long awaited return to Beijing!April 18, a spring evening in Beijing, Yugong Yishan, The Verse lead the masses in an evening on dancing on a night in which everybody loves funk!
