Margret started singing gospel at 5 years old with brothers Jaeson and McArthur. Her mother, Beverly Butler, was instrumental in developing her talent. She belongs to a family gospel group The Heavenly Ambassadors later known as Four With God. Margret has been in local R&B bands and in August, 2018 started Margret's Funk Band in honor of her late brother Mac. MFB is not just a show, but an experience created in part by the amazing voice of this artist.
Jaeson started performing at age 5. His first group was known as the Sunshine Band with his sister Margret Wrights and brother, Mac Wrights. He sang lead and back ground vocals with the Reno Breakers El dorado. Jaeson was involved with the Heavenly Ambassadors touring Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado and Alberta, Canada. He has performed with A Night with the Stars, Motown Sound and Kool Fire. His unique style and vocals adds such flavor to Margret's Funk Band.

As a kid I never thought about being a musician - it was all about video games. My Pops bought me my first guitar at age 10 and everything changed. I joined a small guitar class in elementary school. After school I did a lot of learning on my own where I would practice for hours each day. I left video games and dedicated my time to guitar.
Jerry brings an eclectic and soulful tone to MFB. In middle and high school I played the double bass in orchestra and guitar in jazz band. Half way through high school I knew I wanted to be a musician. My genres include Rock, Metal, Jazz Fusion, math Rock, Funk and a bit of country.
