New Pony

John and Peter's, 96 South Main Street, New Hope, PA

​Philly born and bred, New Pony is an electrifying funk and soul band that will absolutely, without a doubt, unequivocally make you shake your groove 'thang in ways that will scandalize the school board, make the preacher blush, and cause your mom and dad to wonder where they went wrong. Musically, New Pony is a band that revels in a wide array of influences ranging from the classic sounds of Parliament-Funkadelic, The Isley Brothers, and Go-Go icon Chuck Brown, to the greasy, soulful New Orleans funk of The Meters, Galactic, and Dumsptaphunk. But it’s the grit and grind of their beloved hometown - "Philly, yo'" - that provides the deepest influence.
