BREKKY BOY
SYDNEY, AU
“Few greater joys exist than hearing something that surprises the hell out of you – like music did when you were 16. Brekky Boy does that.” - John Shand, Sydney Morning Herald ★★★★
Chaotic rhythms interweaved with cinematic swells and minimalist melodies - Brekky Boy blends instrumental electronic jazz to evoke the emotions felt when watching a Studio Ghibli film. Drawing on artists such as GoGo Penguin, Tigran Hamasyan & Robert Glasper, the Montreux Jazz Award nominees have forged a path as pioneers in the Australian instrumental music scene.
Hailing from the south coast beaches of NSW, the trio has sold out shows across the country, supported Blue Note artist Ambrose Akinmusire and performed at SXSW (US), Montréal Jazz Festival (CA), Montreux Jazz Festival (CH) and more.
