That one gig turned quickly into a dedicated band, playing as often as possible everywhere they could in Colorado. They are known for their huge variety of styles and artists, and their infectious energy that gets crowds up and dancing every time. They play covers like Whitney Houston, Taylor Swift, AC/DC, Tim McGraw, The Cranberries, Shaggy, and many more. Tiny Pockets strives to play as many genres as possible so everyone has something they can sing along to – a “pocket” for everyone. anywhere. The name “Tiny Pockets” is both a nod to their goal of the variety in music, and the only thing the whole band could agree on.
