A fresh, urban rough style mix of Soul, Electro, Beat, Nu-Jazz and Swing – this is the sound of Moonlight Breakfast. They met in Bucharest: Christie, the singer with a striking, extraordinary voice, who had to be argued into singing in the first place, and Bazooka, drummer and multi-instrumentalist, who studied the clarinet at the Bucharest Conservatory. In the meantime they got married and their kid loves to stroll curiously on stage from time to time. Joined by Adita, keyboarder and guitar player, actor and blessed equestrian and Printzu, who gave up his studies of theology to play the bass.
Moonlight Breakfast had exactly five rehearsals before their first concert. And we are not speaking of an underground club location. They were the opening act for Jamiroquai, playing in front of a crowd of 35.000 people. Thanks to their intoxicating performance they passed the test with flying colours and since then, they are performing their worldwide concerts with a playful easiness.
It's that "retroelectro" sound and vibe, topped off with jazzy vocals, that will keep you grooving. A mix of soul, jazz, dance, electro and more, taking you through the 40's with their clarinet and Club Jordan to the 80's with their synths, while well anchored in the present by the clever production.
