Lazy Slang

Lazy Slang came about in 2004, as a group of guys from Burlington Ontario found common musical ground during the summer before their second year of University. Since then, Lazy Slang quickly become more than just a jam band, and thoughtfully began writing material with catchy results. The style of Lazy Slang formed itself out of the varied histories of each member. Tyler, a metal inspired drummer trained formally as well, brings an element of intensity and rock. Ryan, who was in a punk rock band prior to Slang, brought a raw quality inspired by punk/reggae acts like Slightly Stoopid, Sublime, and Joe Strummer. Mick brings a love for reggae on bass, while not limiting himself to reggae, getting into funk and hip hop grooves. The end result of this is a rock and reggae fusion that is not afraid to dip into any musical style that pleases them.

This happenstance of collaborative loves brings about a unique musical style that does not bother to limit itself.
