💜✨#HTS ARTIST HIGHLIGHT✨💜Experience The Breakestra towering musical amalgamation at the Main Stage on Saturday, Aug. 21! The Breakestra was formed by multi instrumentalist-composer, DJ and producer, Miles "Music Man" Tackett in 1997 as a live tribute to the 60s/70s funk & soul-jazz music (breaks) that had been sampled in the late 80s/early 90s hip hop beats. "Arkestra--out-there jazzer Sun Ra’s funkafied concept of the stuffy classical orchestra.” When we combine the two concepts, you have the Breakestra or in other words an orchestra that plays breaks." “The Breakestra should become a class or a 4-year graduate program for funk musicians. Playing with the Breakestra is a great way to get a degree in funk,” explains longtime keyboardist Carlos Guaico. Their vast repertoire spans eras of music and covers, to the point where keeping up is leaps and bounds is above the rest. "A Breakestra show is about dancing & getting your wig flipped back by a non stop throwdown of eight folks on stage getting loose & flexing some soulful skills over some serious funk grooves both original and deeper covers drawn from the vault of Miles music’s vast vault of funk." Secure that wig or leave it at home, either way, just head over to the link in bio to secure your tickets. 👀 Song Credit: "Stand Up" - Breakestra #thebreakestra #breakestra #hittheswitches#HTS2021 #hellostrangerla #hellostranger #therootdown #summerofsoul #keepitfunky #family rap #theliveixtape #thesearethebreaks #duskstilldawn #djdusk #cali #music #funk #soul #jazz #hiphop #retro #lfl #likeforfollow #likeforfollow #likexlike #l4l#likeforlikes #likesforlike #likeforlikeback https://www.instagram.com/p/CSwkjPwHxVd/?utm_medium=tumblr
