Greetings, Olympia and beyond!

Did you know we do more than throw unforgettable funky dance parties? As part of our mission to uplift both new and established artists, we’re excited to introduce *A.M.P.* — the Accessible Music Program!
AMP collects, repairs, and redistributes instruments to young people in our community who need them most.

🎺 “How can I help?”
We’re currently seeking donations of gently‑used instruments!
Maybe you’ve got a high‑school band horn gathering dust… or a guitar from that brief “I’m totally starting a rock band” era. Whatever the story, your instrument can start a new one in the hands of a kid who might not otherwise have access.

🎶 First big collection event:
📅 July 25, 2026
📍 Ilk Lodge, Downtown Olympia
🎵 Featuring a live performance by Fireside Collective (This is a ticketed event - *BUT* an instrument donation nets you $5 off your ticket for the evening - dropoffs are available any time after 6 PM and do not require entry to event)

It’s the perfect night to support AMP, enjoy incredible music, and reward yourself with a smash burger and a root beer — because honestly, you deserve it.

Let’s give these instruments a second life and help the next generation make some noise.

Gratefully,
Richard, Danielle, and Alan - Ecstatic Sound Collective

We are excited to host Erica Falls and present her as the 3rd Annual Olympia Funk Festival - Funk OFF artist of the week!

Featured Artist of the Week: Erica Falls (& Vintage Soul!). We are excited to spotlight upcoming artists for our 3rd Annual Olympia Funk Festival - Drop your favorite music and video links in the comments below if you like!

Soul singer and songwriter Erica Falls credits her unique vintage sound to her childhood growing up in New Orleans’ 9th Ward, where her parents introduced her to Roberta Flack, Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone, Sarah Vaughn, and Whitney Houston. Whether on stage or in the studio, she channels a sassy, soulful tone that recalls an earlier era. But Erica cautions her fans: “Vintage soul is not about bringing the listener back to a time of authentic music, it’s about reminding them that it never went anywhere,” she says.

Erica has toured nationally with renowned New Orleans funk band Galactic as their lead vocalist for the last 5 years, but she made the decision to leave that position and nurture her solo career. In 2024, Erica released her new LP ‘Emotions’ with her backing group, Vintage Soul. Written during the pandemic, the full-length studio work reflects Falls’ experience living life as a Black woman during a tumultuous time. With lyrics that invite listeners to ride a roller coaster of human sentiments, Emotions digs deep into love, sadness, frustration, fear, grief, marginalization, joy, doubt, encouragement, and release.

Be sure to catch Erica Falls & Vintage Soul on Saturday, January 31st on our main stage - pick up your weekend passes now at OlyFunkFest.com
