Bio
Funky Doryz was formed in the early 2004. Ayaq who plays the bass formed Funky Doryz. Followed by Nur Jiwa who supported Ayaq’s idea to play a new kind of music that they have never played before. After a few boxes of cigarrette and serious conversations and discussions, they decided to make O.P as the drummer, Bandu as the vocalist and Pejal to play lead guitar.
Bonded by childhood friendship, Funky Doryz was formed as a tool to express their maturity and obsession for music. From high school talent tines, prom nights to F1 show, Funky Doryz has dedicated their music to another level.
This band was a result from a different kind of music backgrounds by each and every one of them. O.P, AyaQ and Jiwa, former Secret Agent 606 members provide the sound of ska, soul, funk and jazz input into the band.
On the other hand Pejal provides the progressive, groove, rock and blues ingredient into it. Pejal is technically a guitarist who studies music formally. They claim Pejal as their ’Sifu’ although he is the youngest band mate.
While Bandu, a multi talented person who contributes his voice got his main influence by his ’mentor’ Zack (Rage Against The Machine), Jason Mraz, Jamie Cullum, Jamiroquai and some other rock jazz voices. Making these great artist as his idol to generate ideas on improvising his singing ability while still keeping up with soul, RnB, funk + rapping stuff.
