THE BREAKS (ROBERT WALTER, EDDIE ROBERTS & STANTON MOORE)『The Breaks』CD

Confirmed to appear at Fuji Rock! The debut album from The Breaks, a new band formed by three titans of contemporary funk and soul jazz: guitarist Eddie Roberts (The New Mastersounds), drummer Stanton Moore (Galactic), and organist Robert Walter (The Greyboy Allstars)! A monumental masterpiece that showcases a class above in every aspect – songwriting, performance, and sound!

When three groove masters of modern funk and soul jazz come together, sparks are bound to fly. The Breaks is a convergence of three musicians—guitarist Eddie Roberts (The New Mastersounds), drummer Stanton Moore (Galactic), and organist Robert Walter (The Greyboy Allstars)—whose grooves have shaped the sound of contemporary funk for over two decades.

Rooted in the tradition of late 60s organ trios and punchy boogaloo, The Breaks propel their sound forward with deep rhythms, tight arrangements, and bold improvisation. Eddie Roberts’ sharp, melodic guitar work dances nimbly over Stanton Moore’s explosive, New Orleans-stamped drum grooves, while Robert Walter’s distinctive Hammond organ sound ties it all together with grit and soul.

They have toured countless times, recorded groundbreaking albums, and collaborated with luminaries of the modern jam, funk, and jazz scenes. Yet with The Breaks, the chemistry feels spontaneous, as three kindred spirits immerse themselves in the groove and ride its current.

From sweaty club sets to large festival stages, The Breaks deliver a sound that is both deeply rooted and constantly evolving—a raw, joyful celebration of rhythm and musical dialogue. Welcome!
