Second chance

BREAKUP LINES started as an acoustic project between Kevin Ratte and Martin Houde, operating at the time under the name ‘’Apologize for May’’. The duo performed a few shows and recorded their first demo under Growing Roots Records (RIP).

Over time, they felt the need to complete their compositions. It was then that the two guitarists decided to call Laurent Comtois Martel, drummer of the now retired band  ‘’ The Accousticolics ‘’. The latter decided to join the two amigos to add his personal touch. The arrival of a drummer gave a boost to the group whose sound began to evolve more and more towards rock. Naturally, this change  required the addition of a bass player.

The trio quickly composed several songs and the chemistry between the three musicians developed quickly. The lack of a bassist however, halted the emergence of the group onto the music scene despite the fact they were overflowing with creativity including some seriously creative and catchy riffs.

The trio finally managed to find a bass player who wanted to be part of the project. The compositions were further developed, but unfortunately, a few months later, he decided to quit. The group underwent its first loss, without abandoning the future of the group. The Members rolled up their sleeves and searched for a new bassist while continuing their jam.

After some time, the group finally found their bassist in David Talbot who was the last missing piece of the puzzle. A strong chemistry further developed between the four musicians and their passion for music pushed them to improve week after week until the group finally broke onto the scene music with unwavering attitude.

Finally, the band members decided to choose a name that represents their way of seeing music, thus BREAK UP LINES was born. The 4 members joined forces to release their first EP “In Chemistry”. No need to try and pinpoint the exact style of this 4 track EP, we’d rather let your ears decide!﻿﻿
