More Info:
Mr. Breakdown throws dance parties. The band plays a unique style of funk, reggae, and soul steeped in the grooves of James Brown, Tower of Power, Bob Marley and Fela Kuti. Their tight pocket sets the groove, while catchy vocals and inventive horn arrangements give the songs their distinctive pop sound. Based in Nyack, NY, the main songwriters and rhythm section have been creating music together for over 10 years. They are Mike Kemmlein (Guitar/lead vocals), Joe 'Mamma' Carpentieri (Drums, vocals) and Dave Reiss (Bass, vocals). After years of playing funk in many incarnations, they honed their sound and formed Mr. Breakdown in 2008. WIth the release of their debut album, Shake Daddy Jupiter, Mr. Breakdown plans to spread their music throughout the world.
