After an extended tour through Europe, Australia’s premier live funk outfit The Bamboos have finally returned home. There’s no rest for the wicked, however, as they’re heading straight back out on the road to launch their latest album ‘Rawville’ this weekend, playing alongside famed UK hip-hop MC Ty in Sydney and Melbourne, before heading over to Adelaide in July.

It’s the band’s crowning achievement, and is sure to solidify their reputation as one of the globe’s most revered funk acts. Over the jetlag, ITM’s Mo’Funk spoke with Lance Ferguson of the band about their triumphant European tour.
