Meet One of Our Featured Bands - Funhouse

You can always find the best live music at the Lake of the Ozarks at Dog Days Bar and Grill.  With 2 stages, we can keep the party going all night long without big breaks in between acts.  One of the amazing bands that will be gracing our stage this Summer is Funhouse.  





They describe themselves as the HOTTEST, HIGH ENERGY dance rock party Band, playing the LATEST dance tracks to make you wanna SHAKE IT!!!  Well, they have already played  here a few times, and we can definitely vouch for them.  When these guys play, the dance floor stays packed!  We asked the guys a few questions, and this is what they had to say.


The Band
  • Jimi James  -  guitar, vocals
  • Eddie Hines  -  bass guitar, vocals
  • Tommy Dwyer - drums, vocals
  • Micah Collins  -  production coordinator (audio/ lighting)
How did the band come together?

The band formed almost two years ago, with the idea of focusing on current songs & artists, as there are already a ton of 80's, 90'. classic rock, country, and blues bands in the area.  We wanted to play something different that could get dancers excited.


What are some favorite or unique gigs you have played?

ALL of them, with summer shows at Dog Days at the top of the list of course! The attendance of bachelorette parties always promise an "off the hook" evening.


What's a party like at Dog Days when you guys play? 

Absolutely some of my favorites... I love the lake and lake people... and the best party is at Dog Days.  Drinking, dancing, excited peeps... never a dull moment!!  Plus the staff is second to none.
