Wonderful Wednesday: The Funky Taters

Wonderful Wednesday: The Funky Taters
Wednesday, March 18 | 6–8 PM
📍 Goodwood Museum & Gardens

Join us for Wonderful Wednesday at Goodwood Museum & Gardens featuring live music from The Funky Taters!

The Funky 'Taters band from Tallahassee plays jazz, blues, funk, rock, country, folk, and reggae, a mix that has been called the "Music of the Gulf Coast Highway."  The Gulf Coast route is Highway 90, which travels near Interstate 10 (I-10) from the East Coast of Florida, through New Orleans, all the way to Texas.   Michael (Mike) W. Lewis is the leader and founder of the Funky 'Taters.  He is a singer, guitar player, band leader, and songwriter. 

When asked when he became interested in music, Lewis answers that he “always was... as long as I can remember music has been the magic of the world, the thing that stirs my soul.”  When asked about his songwriting, he said, “I try to write fun songs that make you smile, and that make you dance. I don't want to write dramatic sad songs... there is enough sadness in the world today.  I would like to give people a happy moment that is not necessarily profound, just enjoyable.”

Enjoy beer and wine from the Goodwood concession stand, plus delicious bites from Damas Café and a local food truck while you soak in live music beneath Goodwood’s historic oaks.

Tickets: $5 | Free for Goodwood Members | Free for kids age 15 and under
