Rufus Barbarino - Vocals

Hailing from the ghettos of Brooklyn, NY, Rufus learned the hard way how to become a true freak. With a sense of street smarts and the experience of hanging out with the brothers in the hood, Rufus truly learned how to get funky with the best of them. Being the only Italian in the neighborhood with an afro bigger than most of the brothers, Rufus was on his way to getting his freak on. By the age of 12 he was jamming with the likes of Bootsy, Mr. James, Funkadelic and the Acid Trips, K.C., and Big Bootie Bottom. Before long he quickly established himself as the number one "Guido Soul Brother" in the entire tri-state area. It was that one fateful night in 1978 hangin' at Studio 54 when he met Jerome Calzone and Nick Gigolo (fresh from getting kicked out of K.C. and the Sunflower Boys,) that he decided to form the ultimate disco show band, the Boogie Freaks. Devastated by the closing of Studio 54, they decided to pack it up and move to Hollywood where they would meet the fourth and final member of the Boogie Freak: Slappy Holmes. Since then, Rufus has appeared on several popular records you've come to know and adore. Unfortunately he never received an ounce of credit for any of his work, therefore he must travel aimlessly around the world to perform these songs the way they truly need to be heard. Email Rufus

Nick Gigolo - Drums

From the age of 12, Nick Gigolo was destined to become a disco drummer. In 1977, while working at his father's pizzaria, Big Nick's Pizza Palace, Nick spent  most of his time street drumming with the brothers on Detroit's lower east side. Tired of the hustle and bustle of delivering pizzas, as well as his father's disapproval of his newly grown afro, Nick decided to pursue his career as a musician and future founder of Afros Anonymous. While playing on the streets, Nick's talent was noticed by K.C. himself and was asked to join K.C. and the Sunflower Boys. It was with K.C. that Nick joined up with guitarist and friend  Jerome Calzone whom he developed an instant musical chemistry with. After months of touring, Nick was "fired" from K.C. and the Sunflower Boys for what was unofficially claimed as "mutual differences." Nick's side of the story is that K.C. got fed up with him stealing all of the chicks, hence the name Nick Gigolo. A true ladies man, Nick is as smooth on the drums as he is with the women. Today, Nick can be heard performing all over the globe with the world famous Boogie Freaks, so parents... Lock up your daughters! Email Nick
