Kris Yunker
Kris is a funk/soul Hammond organist who brings his unique sound and vintage gear to every gig he plays. Since 2002, Kris has been making himself a name in the music scene with his cosmically rhythmic keys and heavy-hitting left-handed bass lines. In addition to his own project Yunker Funker, he is also in the rotation of such acts as The Glen David Andrews Band, The Garcia Project, Alan Evans Trio, On The Spot Trio, Elise Testone, Drew Angus, Love Raptor, The 7 Day Weekend, and many more.
 
Kris played and toured with Goose in 2017 just before recording his first solo album, Bicoastal Waves. Kris recently subbed for Soulive's Neal Evans at Bowlive with George Porter jr. When not on stage, he is in the studio. Lately, he has also appeared on the albums of Alan Evans, Joe Marcinek, Sugar Business, Frank Sellman, Drew Angus, Greg Mattson, and Mike Oehmen. Kris also has appeared in the 2023 lineup at Jazzfest with The Glen David Andrews Band.
