Upon recovery, the group Topper was formed. Toppereventually became the band for Billy Joel. Twenty-six years later, still playing with Billy, Liberty's new love is The Fun(k) Club.
The Fun(k) Club Bio: Step into the club and find out what happens when you take six of the best players in the world and mix'em together with all the greasy funk, rhythm and blues, New Orleans and Southern styles that they can muster thru fingers and lips. Charter members of the club... Liberty DeVitto and Larry Jacoby pound out the solid Fun(k) Club groove, while Doug Bare lays out the nasty organ bed.
Enter Charlie DeChant, Tommy Calton and Steve Walters... bringing tricky and tasty melodies on saxophone, guitar and trumpet to the mix. The result? A funk that is undeniably soulful, energetic and fresh.
