Fatbook is heavy dose of Chicago groove with a worldwide perspective. Soul and Jazz sensibilities, Reggae intentions, HipÂHop beats, and influence of WestÂAfrican and Brazilian music. The seven members varied experiences influence who they are as people and the music they create. Fatbook shows are an energized excursion through soundscapes that weave through genres Âa sound that you can't quite place and you you can't stop moving to. The group makes music that is fresh, colorful, and rooted in groove.
Fatbook was originally formed at Lawrence University and won "Downbeat Awards" from the jazz world's Downbeat Magazine in 2009 and 2010. The group has been rooted in Chicago since then, and unique high energy live performances have propelled them to quickly become a recognized force in the Chicago music community.
