Jakarta is the hottest Old School Funk, Motown
and R&B band, JAKARTA! The Jakarta Band plays a variety
of music from disco, soul and hip-hop to soft rock.
For years, Jakarta has been an A-list band
for Weddings, Corporate Events, Festivals, club shows and
so much more. All it takes is one time to witness this 9
piece band do their thing and they will have you begging
for more!
With an incredibly talented and high class mix of musicians,
stellar stage performance and wide variety of music, Jakarta
Band is perfect for any event!
For the past 35 years, Isaac Points (founder of the Jakarta
Band) has been creating the groove that gets people on the
dance floor. Whether it was opening for Stanley Clark and
Herbie Hancock, playing bass with Chuck Berry or Tony Bennett,
USO tours with Joe Clemons, signing with the Platters or
playing amusement parks with Tom Slick and Jinx Jones.
This Denver native began his musical career at the age
of 9 playing trumpet. At 17 he switched to bass and began
working Denver’s local club scene. Playing everything
from Jazz to Country, Isaac spent his time perfecting his
art.
In the early 90’s a jazz quartet called the Jakarta
Funk Attack made its debut at the Rock Bottom Brewery. In
addition to Isaac the band consisted of Tim Greenhouse,
Robert Johnson (now touring with "A Brief History of
White Music"), Robby Chamberlain and Bob Rebholtz.
When Isaac added Funk to the mix, Jakarta started packing
the dance floors of the hottest dance clubs. And he still
is.
