Breakwater Concert February 10, 2012 BUY TICKETS
Breakwater is a Funk and Soul band that started in the 70’s and continued on until around 1980. Releasing only two albums, the band is similar to last post’s Edwin Birdsong in two respects. One, they released a very small amount of material, making their music hard to find. Two, they were sampled by Daft Punk. The song Robot Rock samples their biggest hit, Release The Beast. While Splashdown, and Breakwater in general have some more Funk songs like Release The Beast, they mostly spent their time on slower Soul jams. It’s well done music, just overlooked. The music sounds straight out of that 80’s disco-y/funky era, and the vocals croon over the often schmoozy lyrics. My favorite is Release The Beast for it’s full on Funk Rock attack, but the other 7 songs on the album aren’t bad either. Say You Love Me Girl and Time are two love ballads that would be good on any 80’s mixtapes, and make from a break of the standards that fill those lists.

Annie Lee
Annie Lee is an internationally acclaimed artist and gallery owner known to art collectors the world over. Lee learned the ability to focus and stay on task from her childhood, because back then things were done on schedule–laundry on Monday, ironing on Tuesday, and so on. On Sunday the family would dress up and go to church. “Gimme Dat Gum!” recalls such a time. Annie thinks back with a warm smile on quarter parties, chicken in the box, saddle oxfords and the cute football player at Wendall Phillips High School, her alma mater.

James Denmark, born in Winter Haven, Florida in 1936, is part of an artistic family. He was exposed to color and form at an early age by his grandmother, a wire sculptor and quilt artist. His grandfather was a bricklayer noted for his unique custom designed molds and his mother was gifted with an intuitive eye for design and detail. This rich beginning is the root of James Denmark’s creative expression.
