Description
When three modern groove masters of modern funk and soul-jazz converge, sparks are bound to fly. The Breaks brings together guitarist Eddie Roberts (The New Mastersounds), drummer Stanton Moore (Galactic), and organist Robert Walter (The Greyboy Allstars)three musicians whose collective groove has shaped the sound of contemporary funk for over two decades.
Rooted in the tradition of late-60s organ trios and hard-hitting boogaloo, The Breaks pushes the sound forward with deep-pocket rhythms, tight arrangements, and fearless improvisation. Eddie Roberts sharp, melodic guitar work dances effortlessly over Stanton Moores explosive New Orleans-infused drum grooves, while Robert Walters signature Hammond organ tones tie it all together with grit and soul.
Between them, theyve logged countless tours, recorded landmark albums, and collaborated with a whos-who of the modern jam, funk, and jazz worlds. But in The Breaks, the chemistry feels spontaneousthree kindred spirits locking into a groove and letting it ride.
Even though this is a new band, there are years of history between us, says Walter. These are two of my favorite musicians and two of my closest friends. Im also a huge fan of both Eddie and Stanton. Its so easy and fun to play music with these people. Its like putting on a pair of well broken in comfortable shoes.
From sweaty club sets to major festival stages, The Breaks deliver a sound thats both deeply rooted and constantly evolvinga raw, joyful celebration of rhythm and musical conversation.
