Lazy Habits

Ever since Questlove from The Roots picked up his drumsticks and gathered up a selection of kindred musical spirits in Philadelphia way back when, live bands within hip hop have been a cause for celebration. And today, carrying on that tradition, is the mighty Lazy Habits.

Having found a home within the infamous musical hotbed of London, UK, Lazy Habitshave spent the last decade forging their own path in a territory increasingly populated by sound-alikes, thanks to a unique take on the live band angle, which includes two drummers and a substantial amount of brass.

The vision for the band was to create a sound that resembled the dynamic you get between a DJ and an MC, but through the use of live instrumentation.

Lazy Habits have worked or shared the stage with Mos Def, Ozomatli, Young Blood Brass, Slum Village, DOOM, Asian Dub Foundation, Foreign Beggars, Hackney Colliery Band and Kid Koala.
