Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more. No, no, no. She turned 18, packed her Jeep (leaving enough room for her New York attitude, of course), and headed for Hollywood.and we all know what happens in Hollywood.
Fueled by an intrinsic need to express, to create, and to rock faces, BREAKER is the musical creation of lead singer, Liz Granite. Shortly after arriving in the City of Angels, Granite began cutting demos and developing what would soon be the BREAKER sound. Her voice, chock full o' grit and unbridled emotion, captured the attention of record producer, Dean Dichoso. Granite wrote and recorded the band's debut record, "The More I Want, The More I Get" with the support of Dichoso, who also played bass and guitar on the 10-track album. It wasn't until the completion of the album that Granite assembled a live band who could truly bring BREAKER to life.
When Will Walz agreed to engineer Granite's vocals alongside Dichoso, he didn't realize he'd be getting a band out of the deal. Granite and Walz became fast friends, and when it came time to find band mates, Walz was a shoo-in to be BREAKER's bassist. The pair teamed up with drummer, G Herrera, who had caught Granite's eye tearing up the LA music scene with a couple other hot bands. The trio rounded out their five-piece line-up with two guitarists who were brought to them by the miracle of Craigslist. The band played their first show together in April of 2009, just two months before the release of their first album, and haven't stopped since.
Combining contrasting worlds of bombast and bliss, BREAKER's music is as seductive as it is damn-near fatal. The five-piece proudly serves up a juicy slab of female-fronted guitar-driven rock with a sweet dose of off-kilter mood and a little heartfelt angst (for good measure). In-your-face vocals paired with provocative lyrics cap off the band's inimitable sound.
Ten powerful songs from their debut album demonstrate the depth and diversity of Breaker's talent while maintaining a straightforward and unapologetic attitude throughout. CBS's Rockstar: Supernova winner, Lukas Rossi, offers his distinct vocals to the rock duet, "Tenfold True", and Candiria drummer, Ken Schalk, keeps the beat boisterous and untamed throughout this refreshingly raucous record.
BREAKER is breathing new life into music's staling rock scene. By pouring their busted hearts n' souls into each and every song and performance, BREAKER stands apart from the crowd, offering fans straight-up, unfiltered rock packaged in well-crafted and catchy songs. Their live shows, which are akin to New Year's Eve, a rowdy bachelor party, and a high school kegger all rolled into one, have been winning over fans throughout southern California.
This is the kind of the thing that happens when a girl grows up, gets loud, and moves to Hollywood. Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more, and she's got the chops to prove it. BREAKER's music is the total shot in the ear that lovers of rock have been waiting for. Want more? Get more! That is, after all, the BREAKER sensibility.
