What do they do?

Live art! New on the spot music every time they play. Music that can never, will never be recreated, to be there is to be a part of the creation. Organic Funk delivers an explosive sound that is fresh and innovative with the ability not only to move you, but to take you on trips you will long remember.

Brothers, Michael Costantini (Vocals,Guitar), Jason Costantini (Drums) have been honing their groove for over a decade. They recently started working with Alan Zemiatus (Keys) and Jim O’brien (Bass, Sax, Vocals). Now in their early twenties they deliver live shows with electrifying rhythms and heart pounding riffs. Combining the energy of rock n' roll, funk and reggae they keep fans coming back for more. Their lyrics make you think, and their music is a relief for your ears, mind and soul. Music can and has changed the world and Organic Funk aims to continue in that fine tradition. Young, dynamic and hungry, these are musicians you will be hearing about in the months and years to come.

In January 2008 they released their debut album 'When it Began", a self recorded and produced album, mixed by Liam Webster (Engineer for Collin James) and mastered by The Lacquer Channel. In the summer of 2007 the band was asked to write music for Tribute Entertainment's award winning documentary, "Sharkwater". The bands energetic live performances gained them the votes to the Final Round for Ontario in the Emergenza Battle of the Bands. Their following continues to grow exponentially as they make a lasting impact with their live shows and their inspiring studio work.

They plan to tour Ontario in the near future and have been working on their new album in between live shows.


So be sure to be a part of the evolution of a musical revolution. Your energy moves us. It is dynamic. Be there and be part of the creation!

Hope you keep in touch and stay tuned!

"Great live band On a side note - Their CD (when it began) is worth the money. "
- Kieth Jolie, Amplifier Buzz (Sep 14, 2008)

"I didn't have the opportunity to speak with the drummer, but I'm guessing that he has formal jazz percussion training - spot on timing and creative fills, with a real sensitivity for the vocals and the lead guitar. "
- Kieth Jolie, Amplifier Buzz (Sep 14, 2008)

"Michael is one of the smoothest and most talented guitar players I've heard in Toronto and he weaves effortlessly through a repertoire that could just as easily have been played by a lineup of Carlos Santana, Peter Tosh, Jimi Hendrix, and Duane Allman"
- Kieth Jolie, Amplifier Buzz (Sep 14, 2008)


"This 4 piece aptly named band is a highly entertaining and talented group of musicians that do everything to underline the simple elegance that can happen within a 4 piece musical group"
