Listed in Downbeat Magazine's 2004 issue in "100 Great Jazz Clubs"
Previously a two-story private home, Funky Butt maintains a delicate balance between swank and laid back. The upstairs bar is open only on weekends and holidays. Downstairs, the band sits on a small stage in what used to be the front room, right in front of large windows, usually open to the breeze so that passers-by on the sidewalk might be lured in by the music.
