Services
Funk Network UK is the work of Richard Owen, a musician from Newcastle upon Tyne, England.
It is a venture that attempts to ride the tricky balance between artistic ideals and commercial reality, the place where music meets business.

We welcome people getting in contact from all over the world and are always happy to offer help and advice regarding the UK music scene, for the good of the music. For more time consuming and profitable work Funk Network UK offers certain services on a commercial basis.

PA and sound engineering - (Within the Northeast of England)
We have over 6 years experience working with bands of all kinds, we are able to offer an excellent service. From funk to rock, folk to classical Indian, get a high quality sound from people who understand your music. Gigs of all sizes catered for at competitive rates.

Booking agency
Funk Network UK is not necessarily an agent (exclusive or otherwise) for any of the bands in the database. We are happy to develop relationships with venues and help bands by recommending them free of charge for suitable gigs. Good matches of bands and gigs make for a more thriving scene for everyone.
However if a venue needs a set of dates booked and confirmed within a time limit, with bands that fit the bill, then Funk Network UK can provide that service for a reasonable fee.

Tour Management / Booking
With good knowledge of the UK, excellent organisational skills and contact with many venues and promoters, we are well placed to plan and manage tours. Resources are limited so we can only work with a limited number of acts each year.

Stage management / events and promotion
We have experience with backstage work at festivals and live music events both large and small. If you need help with planning or running any kind of event where live music will be performed then Funk Network UK can help you. You can also consult us about the best way to promote a particular event for the best results.
