Whiskey Blanket

Whiskey Blanket is a group of talented artists bound by music, hip-hop and an underground lifestyle. Hailing from Boulder, Colorado, Whiskey Blanket represents a style of hip-hop that demands more from the audience. An eclectic group, Whiskey Blanket consists of 20 year-old Steakhouse (MC, Producer, recording engineer, pianist/bassist, turntablist), 22-year-old Funny Biz (MC, beatboxer, cellist ), 22-year-old Sloppy Joe (MC, violinist). The group, which has been together since 2002, released its self-financed, independent debut album "Its Warmer Down Here" in the summer of 2004.

Staying true to underground hip-hop business methods, Whiskey Blanket sold more than 2,000 copies directly through word of mouth. In January of 2005, the group performed its second headlining show at The Fox Theater in Boulder to a sold-out crowd of more than 800, which became the most successful local hip-hop show at the venue. The group was fortunate enough to bring in such artists as Josh Martinez, DJ Ketchup, and Anti-MC to warm-up the crowd. Whiskey Blanket has also had the privilege of playing with such artists as The Living Legends, Pigeon John, Masta Ace, Old Dirty Bastard, Coolio, flava flav, DJ Mike Realm, Glue, CunninLynguists , Unknown Prophets, and many others. Whiskey Blanket has connected to its worldwide fan base by talking about truths, honesty and life.
