Having shared the stage with acts such as Dumpstaphunk, The New Mastersounds, The Meters' Leo Nocentelli, Shuggie Otis, and the late, great Bernie Worrell, The Humidors are in their element on stage and in the studio.

NEWS

Post-Covid Funk and Soul

What’s up Humid Heads,

Man, covid has been gutting the live music industry and has killed our progress and momentum but we are getting back on the horse and will ride again. We thought we were getting back to it last year but news that our long-time bass and player founding member, Eric Podolsky was moving to Indiana cut deep and it took a long time for us to find a replacement of equal or greater caliber to Eric, which was a tall order. We’ve finally found someone in multi-instrumentalist Rob Ewing. Rob brings a fresh approach and perspective to The Humidors and we can wait to see where the future takes us. We have some shows lined up so look for announcements soon. We can’t wait to see you back out there!

Love,
The Humidors

Combining elements of hard-hitting funk, greasy soul, vintage R&B, soul jazz, and more you can be sure that this eight-piece unit is committed to the groove in all its shapes and forms.

Consisting of some of the best Bay Area musicians and led by the heartfelt lead vocals of Tori Roze, The Humidors have established themselves over their tenure as one of the West Coast's premier funk & soul bands and are committed to spreading the Gospel of Funk to dance floors everywhere. Having shared the stage with acts such as Dumpstaphunk, The New Mastersounds, The Meters' Leo Nocentelli, Shuggie Otis, and the late, great Bernie Worrell, The Humidors are in their element on stage. Bursts and washes of B3, punchy horns, chugging percussion, thumping bass, and burning guitar leads all interweave in an infectious polyrhythmic stew.

This band of troubadours has developed a sound that pulls from a melting pot of old-school and modern influences, yet is always rooted in a commitment to ego-less playing that embraces the ensemble approach to funk.
