Funk! is a studio album by Brian Culbertson released in 2016 by BCM Entertainment Inc. The album peaked at No. 3 on the US Billboard Top Jazz Albums chart and No. 1 on the US Billboard Top Contemporary Jazz chart.[1][2]

Critical reception

Clint Rhodes of the Herald Standard claimed, "Brian Culbertson is on a mission to bring back the funk on his latest studio album. Just like his 2008 release, “Bring Back the Funk,” the talented keyboard player, composer, and multi-instrumentalist swaps out his signature contemporary jazz stylings for a throwback funk explosion."[3]
