Cantaloop are fronted by the C-funk messenger Dannie Dee with his trussed C-funk doctors 100C on guitar and Paulo De’Wooton or BabyT on bass. No band is absolute without the engine and the band have two F1 Groove machines to choose from The Beef or King Popeye on drums. Under the orders of Captain Sugar Lips with his 1st mate, The Horns of Plenty launch their monster horn lines, throwing down Phat dollops of Funkelicious Brass. These elements combine to create an amazing urban Funk outfit.

The funk fusion of Cantaloop is attracting attention for all the right reasons. The group have developed their own blue print blending Funk, Hip Hop, Soul with Rock sensibilities. Chocolate, the lead track taken from the forthcoming EP is not to be missed. The band recently circulated a coveted few white label remixes featuring their stellar track "Real Thing" remixed by The Fun Lovin' Criminals. Also look out for their signature live tune Propa.

Cantaloop have played at various festivals and legendary venues including Glastonbury Festival (The Jazz World and Avalon stages), Montreux Jazz Festival (Montreux), Blue Balls Festival (Luzern), Moods (Zurich), The Flechedor (Paris), Paradiso (Amsterdam), Larmer Tree Festival, Vicar Street (Dublin), Barrowlands (Glasgow), Ashton Court (Bristol), Jazz Café (London), Cargo (London), Carling Academy (Birmingham, Manchester, Bristol), Rock City (Nottingham) and many more.
