Upstate New York funk jam band Formula 5 has announced a 31-show Tour for Summer 2016 spanning the Northeast and stretching into the Midwest. Formula 5’s focus on improvisation of original music and covers that reflect a wide influence of genres drives their rapidly growing fanbase, one they are excited to bring to the Midwest and Northeast stomping grounds this summer.
The quartet of Joe Davis (guitar/vocals), Greg Marek (drums), James Woods (bass) and Matt Richards (keys/vocals) head to the Finger Lake region of New York for a trio of shows in Rochester, Canandiagua and Johnson City to kick the summer tour off proper.
Formula 5 has had a busy 2016, opening for Twiddle in late February, holding a month long residency at Nectar’s in Burlington, VT in March, and performing at a rally for Senator Bernie Sanders in Albany on April 11. Sharing the stage alongside peers including The Jauntee, Strange Machines, Gubbilidis, Hayley Jane and the Primates, Teddy Midnight, and Goose, the funk gets deep every time Formula 5 takes the stage.
