About Us

Hey Now! Thanks for stopping by!

Welcome to Dogtownfunk™ - a heartfelt project fueled by a love of the outdoors, jam bands, questionable decisions, and the kind of humor that comes from surviving many Upstate winters in a row. Every design here is a love note to the chaos, the road trips, the shows, and the weirdly magical moments that make life feel like a crazy, long and winding adventure.

My name is Casey — born and raised in Rochester, NY, which means I grew up on lake days, field parties, and that lovely hot plate you only appreciate after midnight. I caught my first big show at 15 (Further Fest!) and honestly never came back down. The music, the people, the energy… it all felt like a home you could carry with you.

Eventually life took me out to Vail, Colorado, where I met my husband, learned that mountains have moods too, and discovered that some of the best ideas start with “let’s just drive and see where we end up.” A lot of my adventure collection came out of those years — equal parts wanderlust, nostalgia, and “wow, we really lived like that, huh?”

This shop is basically a scrapbook of everything I love:

Jam-Band Nation — my heart’s playlist, forever looping.

Adrenaline Rush — Inspired by wild days and high-altitude nights in Colorado - dirt-road detours, and that whole “on the road” spirit Kerouac would’ve probably called holy.

Upstate NY Collection — my soft spot for Rochester, the Finger Lakes, lake towns, and sunset drives that somehow turn into stories.

And because honesty matters:  I’m comically bad at keeping up with social media and I'm trying - so please don't equate my lack of social posts with me being a bot or something. I'm real I swear! 

So - if you made it here anyway — truly — thank you. You’re helping a small, dream-chasing Upstate human keep creating things with heart, humor, and a whole lot of love.

New stuff drops often, so feel free to stick around, check back in, or follow along whenever the mood hits.
Either way — welcome to the funk. 💛
