Bio
BREKKY BOY
SYDNEY, AU
"Lyrical melodies, hard-hitting polyrhythms, EST/Tigran-style progressive grooves and no shortage of Aussie humour..." - Jazzwise UK
Brekky Boy are an Australian electronic jazz rock trio who chuck things at each other on stage and occasionally play in 4/4. Giving up the dream of competing in the World Surf League, Brekky Boy decided to have a crack at jazz. Their latest EP ‘Seita’ was not nominated in the 2024 Grammy Awards but received praise from uncles and aunties alike.
The Montreux Jazz Award nominees have toured the world in search of the best bratwurst at festivals SXSW (US), Montréal International Jazz Festival (CA), Montreux Jazz Festival (CH), London Jazz Festival (UK), Jazzahead (DE), Saalfelden Jazz Festival (AT) but are yet to find the winning bratwurst.
Brekky Boy have supported heavyweights Snarky Puppy, Ambrose Akinmusire and no one else.
