The Fumos
Back Deck 2025
THE FUMOS are a NYC-based band reviving the glorious horn-heavy dance music of the 70s. From funk to rock, soul and jazz; the 4-piece rhythm section lays down heavy grooves to surround a 3-piece horn section on an array of memorable classic tunes that are danceable and straight up fun! From Kool & The Gang, Maceo Parker, Average White Band, B.T. Express, The Crusaders, Stevie Wonder, Steely Dan, Jeff Beck and The Band; THE FUMOS bring a loose, fun vibe to their shows that people love to party and dance to. THE FUMOS feature veterans of NYC’s live music scene including (L to R) Jack Walsh (guitar), George Wurzbach (keys), Tony Orbach (tenor sax), Paul Vercesi (alto sax), Kevin Bachelor (trumpet), Charlie Sands (bass) and Gary Ciuzio (drums).
