DaM-FunK toured as Todd's DJ/Keyboardist during the recent TODD RUNDGREN GLOBAL TOUR 2015. Damon “DaM-FunK” Riddick is the epitome of funk. Ever since debuting with Stones Throw in 2008, DaM-FunK has become one of the genres most passionate proselytizers, out to save it from devilish depictions of cartoonish caricature. To DaM, funk is a way of living, “a feeling of struggle and staying cool through it all.” DaM-FunK grew up in the Los Angeles city/suburb of Pasadena. A ‘70s baby, he came o...
