So Funknation returns on November 30th to the international independent music venue link is at the bottom of the page.. a 320 capacity venue where the Geordie lads bring their red Ellen tour to Leicester..
A delayed but relentless tour schedule for “Stratos Bleu” meant that it wasn’t until the middle of 2022 that they could get back to writing, delivering their 7th album “Red Ellen” (named after a female labour politician who was instrumental in shaping post war attitudes to social justice) which was released in October 2023.

Less electronic an odyssey than “Stratos Bleu”, but still firmly centred on the dancefloor and with an overwhelmingly optimistic message of love and compassion, “Red Ellen” is tempered as always with the reality of working class life in the North East of England.

The uplifting intensity of the dancefloor anthems (of which there are many) is matched by the emotional sway of the slower tracks including two beautiful tributes to lost family.

This album saw the band perform live on Sky TV, perform a guest mix on BBC 6 Music and have multiple singles playlisted on Jazz FM.
