Gnarfunkel Releases a new single and music video “Bamboo Bong”
West Coast funk-rock band Gnarfunkel are celebrating 4/20 with the release of their new single and video ‘Bamboo Bong’ out today on all digital streaming platforms. Watch the video here.
’Bamboo Bong’ is the latest track to be released from Gnarfunkel’s debut album Gnarnia, which is out on May 6th. The perfect song for coming out of the pandemic, ‘Bamboo Bong’ celebrates those times that we need to escape from the turmoil around us.
“Living in the modern world can be overwhelming,” says vocalist/guitarist Tyler Lanigan. “Luckily for us, a new form of escapism has recently been legalized in Canada. Through its chaotic intro, funky verses, and bridge combining anxious instrumentals with clips of Reefer Madness, ‘Bamboo Bong’ explores the dichotomy of being high combined with the residual stigma for the soul-destroying reefer.”
Gnarfunkel’s debut album Gnarnia was conceived and recorded as a lockdown project when it became clear in early 2020 that they would not be playing live shows for a while.
“We looked inwards and decided to assemble the debut record we had always dreamed of making,” says Tyler. “It was a vinyl album from the very beginning, with each side and tracklisting planned long before any recording began. All the songs on the album had been sufficiently road tested to audiences across the beautiful province of British Columbia and went through an intense rewriting process that lasted a year.”
Armed with a plan and a bunch of songs, the band then recorded the album at Monarch Studios with Juno-nominated producer Tom Dobrzanski. Gnarnia is the passion project of a group well known for energetic live shows that were confined to a makeshift basement recording studio for a year. It contains the bottled-up energy of a band that can’t wait to hit the road again!
Bamboo Bong’ is available now on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes, and other digital retailers and streaming services worldwide. For more info, please visit gnarfunkel.com

Jennifer Lopez Clashes With Paparazzi in Fiery Hamptons Showdown, “Get Away from Me and the Kids!”
Jennifer Lopez was caught in a dramatic showdown with paparazzi during a recent Hamptons getaway with her children. The star’s frustration was palpable as she demanded photographers leave her and her kids alone, shouting, “Get away from me and the kids! Go away!”
The intense moment was shared by The Neighborhood Talk on Instagram, where Lopez’s fans quickly rallied to her defense. One commenter noted, “Y’all clearly hear her say ‘get away from me and the kids’… she’s just protecting her children.” Another added, “The internet’s been so harsh on her lately. Give her a break. This new generation is just weird.”
The incident followed a heartwarming Instagram post by Lopez featuring a sweet photo of her and her twins, Max and Emme, captioned, “My whole heart.” While Lopez was enjoying the East Coast, her husband, Ben Affleck, remained in Los Angeles. Meanwhile, Affleck’s daughter, Violet, recently visited Lopez on the East Coast.
In related news, Lopez has canceled her This Is Me… Live tour, which was set to include 30 summer shows. The cancellation, rumored to be due to sluggish ticket sales, was framed by Lopez as a need to focus on family. She assured fans, “I promise I will make it up to you and we will all be together again. I love you all so much. Until next time.”
