Are you a Michigan musician or know of a few talented artists?
Banbarra is one of those groups that have one really great single and then disappear without a trace. The hard rockin funk band was composed of Joseph "Bunny" Carter and Moe Daniels. McDaniel had this instrumental track called "Boogie On The Other Side Of Town" and then Carter wrote some lyrics changing the name to "Shack Up" making the tune an urgent plea to forego the marriage ceremony. A very detailed history of this mysterious band and song is at https://daily.redbullmusicacademy.com/2015/09/shack-up-a-loop-history
