All Good Funk Alliance – Go-Go Bananas video

Frank Cueto and Rusty Belicek, collectively All Good Funk Alliance, released a funky fun album Jacks of All Trades earlier this year on powerhouse local dance label Fort Knox Recordings. Yesterday the duo released a music video for Go-Go Bananas, directed by Jesse Justice and featuring Mustafa Akbar on vocals. This video was shot back in July at something called Camp Monkey Business, and after watching it I’m sure you’ll be as sad as me that you missed it. AGFA spins tonight at Tropicalia around a live performance by funk band The Good Thing.

Mustafa Akbar – Call Me video

DC music video of the day! Mustafa Akbar a.k.a. Mustabar is well known as a frequent collaborator with just about all of the talented bands on the Fort Knox Recordings and Eighteenth Street Lounge labels. He’s also the gracious host of the annual Mustock festival at his home in Lignum, VA. His project with Rex Riddem, Nappy Riddem, plays a show tonight at Monserrat House with local ska band The Chariots. But before it all, Mustafa Akbar put out a couple of soulful solo albums, and today’s video comes from his 2009 release That Day.
