THIS FRIDAY | Yo Mama’s Big Fat Booty Band w/ Future Joy @ The Mule at Devil's Foot Beverage Co.
Nov 20 all-day

Friday, November 22 | DOORS 7pm | SHOW 8pm

Yo Mama’s Big Fat Booty Band is a seasoned group of musicians, who have taken their high energy, Funk filled live stage show back and forth across the country since they first hit the scene back in 2002. The band was conceived in Boone, NC and quickly gained a cult following for their wildly entertaining and “over the top” stage antics. In 2006, Booty Band, as fans affectionately nicknamed the group, moved to Asheville, North Carolina, and have since become the poster child for the Asheville Music scene.

Future Joy is a Future-Funk hybrid duo hailing from wherever their mobile RV stage is parked. Blending elements of funk, house, bass, pop, drum and bass, hip-hop, techno, jazz, dubstep and more; Future Joy takes the listener on a joyous adventure with no musical boundaries. Both artists DJ, sing, and play keyboard while Zach shreds tenor, baritone, and bass saxophones in the key of fun.
