LowFat is a band for folks who want to get their party on. Where jam band meets hip-hop, LowFat combines the funk of Galactic, the danceability of a Neptunes joint, and the soul of SoCal, Sublime-style reggae. This ten-piece Bay Area groove collective gets the drinks flowing and the people dancing with a home brew of horn stabs, turntable scratches, funky guitar, dub-reggae bass, and Timbaland-style synths, all wrapped up with a funky back beat.
Since its first gig in 2001, LowFat has played and promoted shows at many of the Bay Area's most popular nightclubs including Cafe du Nord, Red Devil Lounge, Cactus Club, El Rio, Rickshaw Stop and Hotel Utah. They also recently headlined the Last Day Saloon, to celebrate the release of their 17-track debut album 'Bar Wisdom'. Over the past four years they've developed a loyal fan base that knows LowFat's sick hip-hop beats, NOLA infused grooves, and dub-reggae jams will provide the soundtrack to buying another round.
