Sounds Funny Band featuring Micah "Bam-Bamm" White is an experience like no other. As a child, Micah's first loves were singing, rapping, and playing instruments. The first group he was a part of was a rap group he started in the sixth grade named "3 of a Kind." Bam-Bamm was also in "P.I.N.G.," a community choir led by Dr. Henry Panion III, who at the time was the musical director for Stevie Wonder.
Micah joined the band in the second grade, starting with the trumpet, but he also played drums, saxophone, trombone, and was offered a scholarship to play the tuba at Alabama A&M University.
At the age of 20, Micah went on stage to try comedy. From that moment, he never stopped, and for the past 28 years, he has had a successful comedy career. Although he focused solely on comedy, the urge to perform music never left. In 2020, the year we thought the world would end, Micah decided to create a band to add to his show. He started working with some of Richmond's greatest musicians and vocalists to create "Sounds Funny."
It's a show of comedy that will make you laugh and think, music that will have you singing along and dancing, and a vibe that he hopes will heal and bring people together from all ages and backgrounds. If you love all types of entertainment, this experience will give you just that at a very high level.
