BREEZE started as a few sketches in the notebook of songwriter, producer, and engineer Josh Korody (BELIEFS / Elk). Their dream-pop sound took form soon after with collaborators and friends Kyle Connolly (Elk) and Shawn Dell (Great Bloomers) joining the band. After a few weeks of rehearsals, the three went into Korody’s Candle Recording Studio in Toronto’s west-end with Josh’s studio partner and producer Leon Taheny (Owen Pallet / Rituals / DUSTED) to record a full length record. Assembling an impressive line up, Breeze has grown to include bassist Dustin Hawthorne (Hot Hot Heat / Islands) and occasional member Louise Burns (Louise Burns / Gold & Youth) on keyboards.
Currently putting the finishing touches on their debut record, Breeze offer up a two-song single in digital and cassette tape format via Toronto film / design house and boutique label, Hand Drawn Dracula.
Breeze – Paradise / Repent is a limited pressing of 100 cassette tapes including a download card.

BREEZE PRESS QUOTES
“Paradise (in a while) – Song of the week” (Hartzine)
“dreamy melodies ~ hazy affairs ~ back porch beers ~ blissed out drives ~ hearts pumping” (Herohill)
“hazy, shimmering guitars that sparkle in the sunshine, warm enough to take the chilly bite out of a late summer night” (Quick Before It Melts)
“dreamy – almost psychedelic instrumentation ~ music that makes for backseat make-outs” (Plaid Magazine)
“The song plays extra jangly, à la Real Estate, and features a reasonably sullen dude going for a sombre walk in the forest with a gorgeous lady friend” (Exclaim! Magazine – Video Premiere)
