Hailing from the vibrant musical landscape of Toronto, Canada, Chameleon Project stands as a testament to the city's diverse and eclectic music scene. Since their inception, they've carved a niche for themselves with their unique fusion of electronic music, funk, disco, dub and psychedelic rock, captivating audiences with their mesmerizing performances and boundary-pushing soundscapes.

 

Formed in late 2003 Chameleon Project is the brainchild of visionary guitarist and songwriter Josh Laing, who sought to create a musical experience that transcends genre limitations. Drawing inspiration from a wide array of influences, ranging from the disco and funk pioneers of the '70s to the improvisational spirit of jazz fusion, and the electronic influence of rave culture, the band embarked on a sonic journey that knows no bounds.

 

At the core of Chameleon Project's ethos lies a commitment to experimentation and improvisation. Each performance is a dynamic and ever-evolving exploration of sound, where no two shows are ever the same. Through their seamless blend of live instrumentation and electronic wizardry, they weave intricate sonic tapestries that transport audiences to otherworldly realms.

 

With a discography that spans several acclaimed albums, including Funk ‘n’ Space, Chameleon Project has garnered praise from both fans and critics alike for their innovative approach to music-making. Their relentless pursuit of sonic exploration has led them to share stages across Canada and the United States with renowned acts such as The New Deal, Lotus, DJ Shadow & Cut Chemist, The Disco Biscuits, Charlie Hunter and more.

 

In 2024 as they crest their 20th year, the quartet continues to push the boundaries of their craft, as they prepare to release their fifth album Vanishing Point featuring a host of original compositions that weave dance ready groves with thematic vocal samples and jazz informed improvisation.
