7-piece funk, blues, and soul collective Pocket Chocolate, is a band of born and raised New Orleans musicians.
Since forming in 2019, the group has played all throughout the Gulfcoast as well as extensively in Louisiana. In September of 2023, the group released their debut EP “Live From New Orleans” (recorded at multiple venues across New Orleans) and is currently recording their debut LP with Jake Eckert of the New Orleans Suspects. With a combination of original songwriting and samples from musical influences across genres, Pocket Chocolate aims to captivate audiences with their scrumptious modern take on the vibrant styles of music that founded New Orleans’ musical culture.
Pocket Choc put on a fantastic performance. Singer reminded me of Little Richard and the sax duo is truly something else (especially since they have brass players now). That drummer was so agile and quick and precise... it was quite the treat to hire Pocket Chocolate.
These guys really take u on a ride to another world. After the crowd applauded the band on the last song, the crowd was locked in and were still comfortably in their seats patiently waiting for another song. The band, having realized the level of attention they had earned from the audience, looked at each other and kicked it into gear. The bass player whipped out something nice with a slap to it followed by the organ player and then the brass. In that the closer was improvised, not a soul could tell and enjoyed how tight and mechanical they ended the tune.
