LabRats is a dynamic quartet of multi-instrumentalists that specializes in many forms of popular American music. A year after the band’s formation, this versatile jazz/hip hop fusion band has gained a name for itself as a stand-alone act in addition to being the preferred companion to numerous vocalists, rappers, and instrumentalists. LabRats, performing all over Sacramento Bay Area, and LA, has their growing fanbase clamoring for more of their psychedelic and hypnotic sounds. In just a year since the band’s conception, LabRats has secured prestigious performance opportunities, such as sold out shows at the SFJAZZ center, Nublu (NYC), and have participated in major music festivals such as the San Jose Jazz Festival, and Concerts in the Park. The group’s second album, “Standard Practice Vol. 1,” was acknowledged and considered for a nomination for Best Alternative Jazz Album by the Grammy Awards. In addition to their many gigs and recording sessions, you can find LabRats at the Torch Club every Sunday night where they curate the “Sunday Sessions,” a free, inclusive and safe environment for musicians and other creatives to meet and perform with one another fulfilling the band’s personal mission of giving back to the community that has shaped them.
