Bio
Bring Back the Funk is a fast-growing Spotify playlist dedicated to the groove—whether it’s old-school funk classics or modern tracks infused with that timeless rhythm. With over 2,800 saves and growing, this playlist is attracting funk lovers from all over the world and is actively promoted through Meta ad campaigns to bring fresh ears to every featured artist.
Curated by members of the Silva Lining Band, an award-nominated group blending soul, rock, and funk influences, the playlist reflects our deep love for the genre and commitment to keeping funk alive in the modern era. We know the power of a great groove, and we’re always on the hunt for music that moves—literally and emotionally.
We typically place accepted tracks within the first 1–23 positions of the playlist and keep them featured for a month or more, depending on performance and fit. We review all submissions personally and provide thoughtful feedback based on years of performing, producing, and obsessing over this genre.
We're looking for:
🎶 Genres: Funk, Neo-Funk, Soul-Funk, Jazz-Funk, Funk-Rock, Funk-infused Pop or Jazz
🧠 Moods: Energetic, groovy, soulful, feel-good
🎸 Characteristics: Groovy basslines, tight drums, strong rhythm sections, hooky melodies
❗ Preferences: We lean toward clean lyrics, but it's not a hard rule—just more likely to add tracks without explicit language. Instrumentals are also accepted.
This playlist has only been live for just over a year, but it's already gaining serious momentum thanks to targeted outreach, consistent updates, and an active listener base who trust our ear for quality.
If you're creating music that grooves and you want to be part of a community that champions the funk—new and old—we’d love to hear from you.
