Any hip-hop gangstas with an ear for classical and jazz looking for like-minded bands and fans?

Yeah, didn’t think so. However, if you’re a fan of eclectic bands that mix elements of rock, jazz, hip-hop and funk, then chances are you know about the Pocket Dwellers. For those of you who don’t know, the Pocket Dwellers are an eight-member band from Toronto that combine the standard drums and guitar with a horn section, as well as two turntables and a mic. The result is a diverse mixture of sounds that appeals to an array of audiences. And now, The Pocket Dwellers are going on for a mini tour that will be hitting some of Canada’s major markets in the coming weeks.

The proof of their diversity can be seen with the variety acts that they’ve toured with, which include Treble Charger, Rascalz, Rahzel of The Roots, Ivana Santilli and jazz artist Charlie Hunter.

For a preview of what the Pocket Dwellers sounds like live, they released a live album last year called Lifecheck, which was recorded during two live sets at The Reverb in Toronto.

Or you can see and hear the Pocket Dwellers for yourself in Hamilton at The Casbah on Saturday April 3rd.
