The Breaks came together in the fall of 2010. These three experienced musicians decided to start a kick-ass Rock n’ Roll band and never looked back. Rooted deeply in classic influences – The Breaks take The Blues, Folk, Rhythm and Blues, and Country into Rock n’ Roll’s 21st century. While The Breaks are active in the studio they focus as much energy as possible on playing live. The band regularly performs at storied venues across Toronto and throughout Canada.

The buzz from their new album landed them a prime Friday night slot during Canadian Music Week 2012 (Toronto) at the highly touted Dakota Tavern. The show was wildly successfull. It ended with the unruly crowd of Breaks fans chanting loudly for an encore.

The Breaks are currently putting the finishing touches on their follow up album "Honeybees".  This is album is another step in the right direction for the boys.  While their debut release "In Meetings" was a raw garage style recording of heavy hitting rhythm and blues/rock n roll tracks, the new album sounds much tighter and brighter, while not straying from the bluesy, twangy essentials that make for quality rock n roll.

Be prepared.
