Funk Royale boasts a dream team duo on vocals with Kevin and Brooke. Kevin, the vibrant and soulful force behind your favourite band! With a journey that began on the guitar and evolved into a passionate career in singing, whose dynamic performances are fueled by inspirations like Prince, Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston, and Stevie Wonder. Educated at Noorderpoort College in Groningen, Netherlands, Kevin has graced prestigious stages, including the West End productions of The Lion King and Jersey Boys, and captivated audiences on The Voice of Holland.

  • Then hailing from Yorkshire and brimming with confidence, Brooke’s musical journey took a pivotal turn when she moved to London to join The Brit School, where she studied Music Performance.
