Headphones Jones

Celebrate the opening night of the Mansfield Readers & Writers Festival with a night of dancing!
Headphones Jones is a Melbourne based funk collective performing energetic dance music with an irresistible atmosphere for a pumping dance-floor.
At the heart of every song is danceable groove and storytelling.
The band is strongly influenced by traditions from around the world – such as American Funk, Cuban and Brazilian Folkloric music and Nigerian Afrobeat – and the interconnections between these styles that all have their roots in West Africa.
Headphones Jones pays homage to these traditions and finds creative ways to include these influences into their original compositions – creating an eclectic and unique sound that is tied together by the thread of grooves that make you want to move.
